Chicken is not only delicious, but also a valuable product from which you can cook an incredible number of hot dishes. What not to do with this bird: stew, cook, bake, fry, marinate, stuffed. Hot chicken dishes are very popular, because they are quite fast to prepare and low in calories, and are also ideal for baby food.
In a frying pan, you can cook the chicken whole, in pieces, with or without bones. It can be fried or put out, with or without oil. Make a full-fledged second course, a light sauce, an appetizer, something that is suitable for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In addition, many options are suitable for adherents of a balanced diet, will be included in many food restrictions.
You can add any vegetables, mushrooms, cereals, legumes to the chicken, regardless of whether you fry them or stew them. If you cook fillets, it will take less time to cook than for a whole carcass. You can even fry a whole chicken in a frying pan, as long as the size of the dishes matches. Tobacco chicken, a popular dish of Georgian and Turkish cuisine, is prepared with adjika and aromatic spices. Often without the addition of oil, because there is enough fat of the chicken itself.
The cooking methods depend on what you want to get in the end: a fried brown crust or tender white meat. It is better to fry in melted butter, animal fat. And at the same time put it on an already hot frying pan – so the meat will turn out juicier if it is not overexposed on the fire. Also, for a crisp crust, it is better not to close the frying pan with a lid.
If the freshness of the meat is “not the first”, it is better to marinate it before further processing. Any vinegar, lemon juice, hot pepper, mustard, mayonnaise and everything that can be suitable for a marinade, simple or complex, will do. The longer you marinate, the more tender the meat will be, the more marinade flavors will appear in it.
Any parts of a chicken in a frying pan are successfully obtained: hams, thighs, legs, breasts, backs, wings, necks, even stomachs, hearts, liver. It is advisable to remove the skin from the chicken, do not use it in a dish. Unless there is an idea to fry it well.
Since chicken meat is more tender than any other, it usually takes less time to cook it. Moreover, in some cases it is highly discouraged to cook it for too long. Otherwise, it may become dry and tasteless. This is especially true if we are talking about fried, not stewed food.
An interesting cold snack with a subtle, spicy aroma of spices, soft and tender, prepared based on Chinese cuisine. I would never have thought that boiled chicken liver could be so delicious and interesting. I’m sorry I didn’t cook enough.
I do not know a single person who does not like barbecue. But not always and not everyone has the opportunity to light a fire or build a barbecue. For such a situation, I offer you my recipe for chicken thighs on skewers, which we will cook in the oven. Of course, we will not have the smell of smoke characteristic of cooking on coals, but the effect of a ruddy crust… plus pickled onions… Almost a barbecue!)
A quick and delicious lunch or dinner. Chicken fillet with vegetables, a tender juicy dish. It is very easy to prepare, from the available products that are always in the refrigerator. It turns out a very tasty, juicy and incredibly appetizing dish. Cook with pleasure. Enjoy your meal.
An easy-to-prepare and satisfying dish for a home dinner. To prepare it, you will need a minimum amount of products. Great for those who adhere to a proper and healthy diet. This dish is suitable as an independent dinner, it is better to prepare a vegetable salad from fresh vegetables or stewed vegetables as a side dish. A side dish of pasta or potatoes will be very heavy for this dish, since in itself it is quite satisfying and high-calorie.
I love 2-in-1 recipes. At the same time, the side dish does not need to be cooked separately. And I wrote this recipe. Everyone was pleased with the result, so I decided to share my idea with the chefs. I hope you like it.
Fantastically delicious dinner in 25 minutes. According to this recipe, even the brisket will turn out very juicy. For cooking, you can use any part of the chicken.
