When it comes to chicken shrimp, I don't know if you are also like me, full of infinite curiosity and expectation. Chicken around shrimp, I think it's funny when I hear the name, isn't it?It's more than just a dish, it's a delicious exploration. Today, I'm going to share how you can easily make delicious and interesting chicken shrimp at home.
First of all, let's talk about the core materials of chicken and shrimp. Fresh shrimp and chicken breast, which is the key to success. When choosing, pay attention to the plump shrimp and the tender meat of the chicken breast. In this way, the finished dish can be guaranteed to be both tender and elastic. Next, there is the choice of marinade. Usually I marinate the chicken with a little light soy sauce, white pepper and a pinch of salt, while the shrimp add a little cooking wine and salt, gently grasp and marinate for about 10 minutes.
Next is the crucial step of making – wrapping and cooking. Lay the marinated chicken flat, gently place the shrimp on the chicken slices, and gently roll it up with your fingers to form the appearance of the chicken wrapping the shrimp. Then, prepare a hot pan, pour in the appropriate amount of oil, wait for the oil temperature to rise, and gently add the chicken and shrimp. At this time, you will hear the sound of "sizzling", which is a cheerful conversation between food and hot oil. Turn over until golden brown, remove and drain the oil, and a fragrant chicken shrimp is out of the pot.
But don't worry, the best part is yet to come. Sauce seasoning is an important part of enhancing the flavor of chicken shrimp. I usually make a sauce with a little light soy sauce, sugar, vinegar and water starch. Return the freshly fried chicken shrimp to the pot, add the seasoned juice, and stir-fry a few times quickly, so that each chicken shrimp is evenly coated with this sweet and delicious juice. Before cooking, sprinkle with some chopped green onions and sesame seeds, which not only adds color but also adds layering.
When the time comes, when you bite into it, the tenderness of the chicken and the deliciousness of the shrimp are perfectly blended, and the slightly sweet sauce is simply a carnival for the taste buds. Such a simple and sophisticated home-cooked dish can be the highlight of the table, whether it is a family dinner or a small gathering of friends.
Finally, I would like to give you a tip: when making chicken and shrimp, you must master the heat well. Chicken and shrimp are both easy-to-cook ingredients, and if they are overheated, they will grow old and become woody, and the taste will naturally be greatly reduced. Remember, stir-frying quickly is key.
Well, that's all for the tips on how to make chicken shrimp. I hope you can enjoy the joy of creating food in the kitchen. Try it, and you may find that you can make amazing dishes yourself. Let's do it, the chicken shrimp is waiting for you to conquer!
