Steamed salted cornfed chicken with a liberal does of sherry.
Salted chicken is so easy to make at home. This is the simplest no fuss recipe. You buy the chicken and unlike the British people, we Chinese like to clean our chicken with salt and rinse before eating. In the winter this is a good dish and easy to prepare and steam on lazy days when you are a bit cold and lazy. My chicken was marinated for 3 days. Adjust your salt to suit. If marinate longer, less salt and so forth. Not actually rocket science but cooking experiences is useful.
You can actually vacuum sealed your chicken and cook it in a Sousvide machine if you like. A simple way as I don’t like to use a lot of other ‘brown’ sauces. I like the clean look, not muddy brown look so no soy sauce, oyster sauce etc. A nice chicken won’t need all those. Eat clean and simple better. Of course you can add ginseng, mushrooms, red dates etc but today I am just lazy and I just want to show off the near perfect cornfed chicken skin.
