"Well, that's good. A servant took a piece and put it in his mouth.

When the chicken is cool, cut it into diamond-shaped pieces with a knife and place it on a plate. Use minced ginger, soy sauce, and ingredients. ”

The wandering chef thought to himself: "Wine, monosodium glutamate, pepper, vinegar, sugar and sesame oil are mixed into a juice and poured over the chicken."

Chop the chicken below, and there is a small amount of blood on the cut chicken, so as to ensure the tenderness of the chicken, and the yard must be accurate, and it is still very knowledgeable in the placement. Then pour the juice you just made over the chicken and you're done. Zhong Tianzheng thought to himself.

Bring the water that can submerge the chicken, put the chicken breasts and thighs into the water and cover the fire for 1 minute, add the rest of the water and continue the heat for 2 minutes, change the heat to 3 minutes, and then heat for 2 minutes.
