How to Prepare Stir-Fried Turmeric Chicken

• 1

  Prepare the chicken

  To prepare the chicken meat cleanly and without odor, take 1kg of chicken, wash it thoroughly with water, then use a knife to cut it into small pieces. After that, soak the chicken in diluted salt water for about 10 minutes and then rinse it with clean water.

  Tips for cleaning chicken meat without odor:

  • You can use a mixture of wine and sliced ginger, gently rubbing and squeezing the whole breast piece again, which helps eliminate the smell and dirt. Rinse well and let it dry.
  • Alternatively, you can add lemon juice to the water and soak the chicken breast for 15 – 20 minutes. Then take it out, rinse with cold water, and let it dry.

  Cook the stir-fried chicken

  Place a pan on the stove, add 3 tablespoons of cooking oil and heat it up. When the oil is hot, add sliced shallots and sauté until golden brown, then add sliced ginger and continue to sauté with the shallots until fragrant.

  Next, add the marinated chicken and stir-fry over high heat for about 3 – 5 minutes, turning the chicken to ensure it cooks thoroughly and firms up.

  Add 4 tablespoons of water from the marinated chicken, swirl it around, and then add it to the pan.

  Reduce the heat, then cover the pan and let it cook for about 10 minutes until the water is reduced, then season to taste.

  Next, add the onion and 3 chili peppers to the pan and stir-fry over high heat for about 5 minutes until the onion is cooked.

  Add the chopped green onions and stir-fry for another 10 seconds, then turn off the heat to complete the dish.
