Roast chicken is a traditional food, which is found in most parts of China. Because the formula and production technology of spices are different, the flavor of finished products is also different, and each place should have its own flavor characteristics. I recommend it to you today.

Roast chicken is a traditional China-style dish, which is made by frying chicken coated with caramel and then cooking it with salt water made of spices. The finished roast chicken has the characteristics of bright red color, delicious meat, fat but not greasy, cooked without bones, soft and rotten. Although the preparation method of roast chicken is complicated, it is very simple to operate at home. Here, I want to share with you how to make it.

-Start making-

1, clean the chicken, don't cut into pieces, gut it directly, clean the chicken, drain the water and apply a layer of honey.

2. Start the oil pan, pour the oil without chicken into the pan, add the chicken when the oil temperature is 70% hot, fry it on medium heat until the surface of the chicken is golden, and remove it.

3. Boil a pot of water, put onion, ginger, fragrant leaves, star anise, pepper, fennel, clove, cardamom, Amomum villosum, Amomum tsaoko, galangal, dried tangerine peel, angelica dahurica, Amomum tsaoko, cinnamon, soy sauce, sugar, soy sauce, cooking wine and salt into the pot, put the fried chicken into salt water after the soup is boiled, and open the pot. (Spices must be put less, just three fragrant leaves, one galangal and one tsaoko. If you put too many herbs in this way, the taste will be very heavy, so just put a little. )

4. Take out the marinated roast chicken, let it cool, tear it open and eat it.

The fragrance is overflowing, tender and refined. Remember not to put too much spice, or it will rob the chicken of its umami flavor. Sugar and salt can be adjusted according to your own taste. In the first step, you can also use caramel instead of honey.
