White Chicken With Green Sauce Food

WHITE CUT CHICKEN WITH GINGER SCALLION SAUCE (白切鸡姜葱酱)

Steps:

• Set the stove to high heat and start boiling a generous amount of water in the pot you'll be using.
• Wait for the water to come to a boil.
• While we wait for the chicken to cook, we'll start on our sauce by mincing our green onions and ginger​.
• We'll heat up our wok on high heat and add corn oil.
• We'll add salt and sesame oil to the bowl, and mix for 30-60 seconds.
• Grab a big bowl and dump a few handfuls of ice into it. Fill it roughly halfway with cold water.
• Once the time draws near, we can uncover the pot. Poke the thickest part of the chicken (around the thigh) deeply with a chopstick.
• Carefully take two chopsticks under the chicken wings, and lift it over the pot.
• This could honestly be its own blog post, but for now it will live in a very detailed step in this recipe.

CHILLED WHITE-COOKED CHICKEN WITH GREEN SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse pound of ginger and, without peeling, cut it into 1/4-inch dice. Place in large stockpot. Cut scallions, white and green parts, into 1-inch pieces. Place in stockpot. Add sherry and 8 cups water. Bring to a boil and boil 10 minutes.
• Rinse chicken inside and out under cold running water. Pull off excess fat. Carefully place chicken in stockpot. When liquid returns to boil, reduce heat to very low, cover the pot and cook until chicken juice run clear, 45 minutes to one hour.
• While chicken is cooking, combine minced cilantro, grated ginger, jalapeño, sesame oil and salt in small bowl. Warm canola or olive oil, if using, until hot. Pour over cilantro mixture, stir, check salt and set aside to cool to room temperature to use as dipping sauce. If not using oil, cilantro mixture can be folded into plain yogurt or mayonnaise for dipping.
• A few minutes before chicken is done, place a large bowl in kitchen sink and fill with cold water and 2 to 3 pounds ice. Remove cooked chicken from stockpot, draining well as you lift it out, and transfer chicken to ice bath. Chicken should be submerged. Allow to chill about 20 minutes, until cool to the touch inside and out.
• Skin chicken, cut up at the joints, then cut breast and thighs in half or in thirds. Arrange on platter garnished with cilantro sprigs and serve with dipping sauce.

WHITE CHICKEN WITH GREEN SAUCE

Steps:

• Fill large stockpot with water; add onion and ginger; bring to the boil.
• Place chicken, breast side down, into the water. Return to the boil and skim surface. Reduce heat; cover tightly, simmer for 10 minutes. Turn off heat, do not lift the lid. Stand, covered, for 45 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the stockpot (remembering to drain the water from the cavity!). Transfer chicken to a plate; refrigerate.
• Carve chicken carefully, across the grain. I removed the skin at this point.
• Seared green onion sauce: Combine onion, ginger and garlic in a heatproof bowl. Heat vegetable oil until smoking hot; pour over onion mixture. Stir then add soy, wine and sesame oil.
• 7. Arrange chicken on plate, spoon over the sauce. Garnish with chunks of honeydew melon or cucumber.
• *****I have made this again since posting and I simmered the stock for 40 minutes before poaching the chicken. I added a bunch of spring onions, a handful more of ginger and about 6 cloves of garlic to the stock.

• With chicken skin side up, add wine and olives. Adjust heat so mixture simmers vigorously, 10 to 15 minutes.
• When chicken is almost done, place sliced lemon on it, and cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Arrange chicken and lemon on a platter, and stir walnuts into sauce. Taste, and adjust seasoning, then spoon sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with parsley, and serve.
