The boss cooks, and the bankrupt company opens a state banquet restaurant

Chapter 70 Fried chicken with noodles, this is going to become a fairy!
  Anyway, it’s still early, and since it’s so delicious, there’s never a fixed time to eat.

It's better to let a few of your employees try the dishes, and also provide lunch for them.

Well, what Su Chen likes to do most is to do one thing and solve several things at the same time.

"Clang clang clang!"

The thawed three-yellow chicken was thrown on the chopping board by Su Chen. After a few chops with the machete, it was cut into three centimeter square chicken pieces.

Ling Shuyu looked at Su Chen's movements and silently took a step back.

‘Meat delicacies are not suitable for me’

‘It’s okay if you eat. ’

Su Chen's movements were smooth and smooth. He put the cut chicken pieces directly into the pot and cooked it slowly over medium heat. At the same time, he also threw in green onions and ginger slices, and sprinkled some cooking wine.

"Chicken is relatively tender. If the water boils too fast, it will be cooked easily. But it will be inoperable when it is cooked. For this step, you have to take the chicken out as soon as the water starts to boil."

In order to get rid of the work at hand as soon as possible, Su Chen started the teaching mode directly in the kitchen.

He Shuting is still responsible for making videos!
  The three-yellow chicken in the supermarket is different from the local chicken raised in the village, and it is easy to cook.

For example, the fried chicken in Shandong Province has different cooking methods in different regions. The main reason is that the ingredients used are different. Each region will give priority to using local chicken, including Xinjiang Province's large plate chicken.

This is also a very important reason why Su Chen improved his methods.

You can’t compare raising Sanhuang chickens with those chickens, they are not on the same level.

But as a gourmet, using inferior ingredients to make superior delicacies is the fun part!

While simmering over low heat, Su Chen added a large amount of vegetable oil to another pot. When the oil was [-]% hot, turn off the heat and pour all the previously chopped onions into it.

Continue to fry slowly over medium heat.

"Onion oil. This oil is commonly used in Fujian cuisine, but ours is not as fragrant as other people's. Make some and keep it for later use."

Su Chen said simply, but others were confused. Now was not the time to figure out the specific principles. Several employees silently took everything Su Chen said to heart.

The chicken pieces that had just been cooked were about to boil soon. Before the water boiled, Su Chen skimmed off the foam on the surface, took out all the chicken pieces and put them in a basket to control the water.

The onions fried slowly over medium heat quickly turned brown. Yanli took out all the onions and threw them away. The oil in the pot was poured into an oil basin and left.

Finish the work ahead.

Su Chen looked at the time and it was already getting late.

"I won't stir-fry the chili sauce. We'll make it in the afternoon."

Without homemade chili sauce, I had to use chili peppers.

Next, is the most critical step in Su Chen’s homemade fried chicken!

saute!
  Heat the wok until it starts to smoke, then add more onion oil, and then put a lot of ginger slices into the oil.

“This fried chicken doesn’t use ginger.”

"What will happen?" Ling Shuyu asked curiously as he was resistant to chopped chicken, but not fried chicken.

"It's like not adding ginger."

The delicious food came. Everyone first savored this sentence carefully, and gradually, everyone's expressions began to change.
  Before everyone was about to take action, Su Chen quickly started adding various seasonings to change the topic.

"Put the green and red peppercorns in for a while, and add some dried chilies, star anise, fragrant leaves and angelica. Be sure to use low heat."

When frying spices, if the heat is not controlled well, it will easily burn and the taste will become bitter.

Spices are really a magical thing. After adding these things, and pulling back and forth with the shovel in your hand, a strange fragrance is already filling the kitchen.

Everything Su Chen did seemed very ordinary and ordinary. Even following a random food blogger would be nothing more than a few tricks.

Heat oil in a pan and add spices.

When the aroma was very strong, Su Chen poured all the chicken pieces that had just been drained into the pot.

Swipe~~
  Although the moisture has been controlled enough to dry out, the moment it comes into contact with the hot oil, there is still a loud sound coming out of the pot, accompanied by small spots of oil splashing everywhere.

He Shuting: I’m trying to persuade you to quit! I’m trying to persuade you to quit!
  Because after a short period of boiling, the chicken pieces have been shaped. After a few gentle pulls to coat all the meat pieces with onion oil, the skin has begun to show a shiny brown color!
  Su Chen didn't know how to explain this step.
  The amount of oil is a big question.

Sanhuang chicken is different from domestic chicken in that the meat is relatively loose. If there is not enough oil, it will stick to the pan after being put into the pan. If there is too much oil, it will become over-oiled chicken.

In order to save trouble when making this dish, many restaurants will directly pass the chicken pieces in oil and then fry them. If this is done, it will not be fried chicken in the true sense.

The taste will be much different.

As for how to control the amount of oil, you only need to be familiar with it.
  Su Chen started seasoning again.

This step is crucial!

Push the chicken pieces in the pot to the edge, leaving a circular space in the middle. You can see that after several times of pulling, the amount of oil at the bottom of the pot is not very large, and after frying for half a day, the bottom oil Not only is it not turbid, but it has become exceptionally clear.

"Then add Boss Su's secret recipe."

Feeling everyone's murderous gazes, Su Chen changed the subject, "Sweet noodle sauce, soybean sauce, oil consumption, Huadiao wine, dark soy sauce and soy sauce, and finally top it with some fresh and thirteen incense."

Continue to turn to low heat.

Cook this dish on low heat almost the entire time.

"Continue to stir-fry until"

Su Chen's current movements basically have no skills to speak of. He is simply stir-frying with a shovel, trying to make every chicken piece covered with rich sauce.

After about three or four minutes, the previous spice flavor gradually began to fade away, replaced by a unique 'meaty' flavor.

The aroma of meat mixed with the aroma of various seasonings made Ling Shuyu swallow his saliva unconsciously just by smelling it.

Who doesn’t like eating meat! ! !
  "When the meat is fragrant, add hot water. Be sure to add hot water!"

At this time, the chicken pieces in the wok are absorbing the aroma of the seasoning like crazy. If cold water is added, the skin of the meat pieces will tighten and the aroma will not be able to penetrate!

The hot water quickly turned into a sauce color when it was put into the pot, almost the same as the chicken pieces. Su Chen covered the pot and then began to deal with other ingredients in a leisurely manner.

"Cut the potatoes into small pieces with a hob, then put them in."

There is a layer of small potato cubes spread in the pot.

"Clap the green and red peppers twice and cut them casually, save them for later."

After reaching this step, most of the steps of frying chicken have been almost completed. Of course, Su Chen will not forget the most important step.

"Someone can go get some hand-rolled noodles from the freezer."

Aunt Fang moved quickly, "I'll do it."

The best-selling delicacy nowadays is soy pot noodles, which are cheap, affordable, delicious and not expensive, and are in line with Jingzhou people’s love for noodles.

So there is almost always dough in the freezer.

Aunt Fang's crime fighting skills were actually pretty good, and Su Chen thought he was much better than himself.

After a few steps, the dough was rolled out into a thin sheet, sprinkled with a layer of dry flour, folded, and quickly cut into long noodles with a knife.

Another pot was put on the stove to boil water. Aunt Fang was about to cook the noodles when she was stopped by Su Chen.

"Don't panic, it's not the time to cook noodles yet."

The best time to eat cold water is when it has passed through the cold water for one minute after being cooked. It is cool on the outside and hot on the inside, and it tastes full of chewiness.

So just prepare the noodles.

The sound of boiling water coming from the chicken frying pan was accompanied by the increasingly rich aroma of meat.

Su Chen's preparation combines the cooking method of large plate chicken from Xinjiang Province, and also adopts the wet frying method of Linyi fried chicken.

As for the ingredients, the most common sauce flavor in Shandong Province is used.

Xinjiang Province's large-plate chicken tastes spicy and the seasoning is based on Sichuan cuisine, which is not in line with the taste of Jingzhou people.

The smell of soy-flavored chicken that filled the air at this moment made the eyes of everyone watching almost pop out, and several people kept swallowing their saliva.

"This dish is absolutely delicious! Just the smell of it makes me want to eat three bowls of rice!"

As expected of He Shuting, a girl who never gets fat no matter how much she eats.

Although Sister Shengnan is also eager to eat chicken, her mind is still on other things, "Boss, how are you going to sell this fried chicken?"

Regarding the price, Su Chen had already thought about it.

"It's 88 yuan per serving. The first portion of noodles is free. Additional portions are 5 yuan. Use the half-sized bowl. Oh, it's the same bowl that He Shuting uses every time she eats noodles."

"Boss!!!" He Shuting stamped her feet angrily, "I only eat two bowls each time, is that a lot?"

At this time, everyone's silence was deafening.

"88 a portion, the price is neither high nor low, I think it's okay." Ling Shuyu stood up and expressed his opinion, "One person will definitely not be able to finish such a big pot, so two people can add one portion The free noodles should be enough to fill you up.”

"nonono~" Su Chen shook his finger, "That's why I cut a whole chicken for the staff meal today. I'm going to sell two portions of one chicken at 88 yuan each."

hiss!
  Half a chicken costs 88 yuan?
  Hearing this, Ling Shuyu frowned slightly.

If this price is placed in some mid-to-high-end hotels, it is not outrageous, it is just the right price.

After all, chicken, duck, and fish are all major dishes, so it’s understandable that they are a little more expensive.

However, with such delicious food in this location and environment, half a chicken is sold for 88 yuan. This price is a bit outrageous. Not to mention others, Ling Shuyu, a little rich woman, thought that she would not eat it after learning the price.

"Don't discuss the pricing anymore. I know it well." After saying that, Su Chen opened the lid of the pot.

After a while, the soup in the pot became much less and slightly thicker.

"Okay, finally pour all the green and red peppers in. Then add some onion oil and a spoonful of chicken soup."

The function of chicken soup is to enhance the freshness, which is much easier to use than chicken essence.

Pour out half of the soup in the pot, then turn to high heat and start to reduce the juice. At the same time, use the last added onion oil to fry the green and red peppers until they are raw.

This was the second move Su Chen thought of.

If you want to eat noodles, you must have a soup base, but a good fried chicken cannot have too much soup. After thickening the remaining soup in the pot, sprinkle some fried white sesame seeds and stir well again.

While the fire is on, pour some vinegar on the side of the pot. The sour taste of the vinegar will disappear briefly, leaving only a richer meat aroma.

Pour the entire pot of chicken pieces and potato pieces into a large open basin, sprinkle with finely chopped coriander, and then pour the juice that was poured in advance into the pot along the edge of the basin.

"It's done!" Su Chen clapped his hands.

After sixteen hours of repeated attempts and preparation, this dish combines the preparation methods of the two provinces and is improved according to the taste of Jingzhou locals.

System rating: A grade.

"Boss, that noodle"

Su Chen shook his head, "No rush, let's eat the fried chicken first and cook the noodles last."

Xinjiang large-plate chicken is served with trousers noodles as a base. Luzhou fried chicken is also eaten with noodles in some places, and the eating methods are different.

But as a true Jingzhou native, noodles must be eaten last to taste the best.

"I'll serve the food!" He Shuting took the initiative to carry the large basin, and the others followed anxiously. They all came to the big round table in the cafeteria and sat down.

The large round table, which could seat ten people, seemed a bit empty with six people sitting there. There was a pot of fried chicken in the middle of the large table, which looked even more shabby.

"My personal suggestion is that this dish should be served separately. Don't mix it all in the same basin." Su Chen said.

Liu Shengnan also nodded, "I agree."

"Makes sense."

Everyone agreed, and Aunt Fang brought a bunch of small bowls and large spoons, and filled everyone's bowls with a full bowl of vegetables.

As the boss, Su Chen was of course the first to get it.

With the chopsticks in hand, Su Chen almost didn't hesitate at all, picked up a piece of potato and stuffed it into his mouth!
  After nearly [-] minutes of cooking, the dense potatoes only need a slight sip in your mouth, hiss!
  It melted into potato paste immediately!

This dense texture is mixed with the aroma of chicken, accompanied by a hint of vegetable fragrance.

So delicious!
  I don't know if Aunt Fang did it intentionally. After Su Chen finished eating a piece of potato, he found two wings in his bowl.

A chicken only has two chicken wings!

When others weren't paying attention, Su Chen quickly stuffed a chicken wing into his mouth.

After slow cooking in low-temperature water and stir-frying over low heat, all the fat on the skin of the chicken has been stir-fried out, giving it a slightly firmer texture, but you only need to bite it lightly.

Gee!
  The meat inside is spraying out with the rich sauce and gravy, and it is also accompanied by the high temperature inside!
  Su Chen breathed in sharply, and everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw this action.

ten seconds later.

"Breathe! Breathe! Breathe"

"It's scalding to death!"

"Ouch, it's delicious, it's hot to the mouth!"

Ho!
  When Ling Shuyu got his bowl, he lowered his head and smelled it.

It tastes great and suits my taste!

Seeing the embarrassment of other people burning their mouths, Ling Shuyu very elegantly bit into a small piece of chicken, and then put half a piece of potato on it.

Unconsciously, her eyes narrowed.

88?

It’s not expensive at all!

88 Being able to eat fried chicken like this is a huge advantage!
  Elegant, Ling Shuyu, you must stay elegant!

When Ling Shuyu picked up the second piece of chicken very elegantly.

Ok?
  Boss Su, why is he standing up?

I go! Boss Su eats very fast?

Ling Shuyu had just eaten the second piece of chicken. Su Chen had already finished the whole bowl. He stood up and took a spoon to get another bowl for himself.

Hot mouth?

Haha, if you can't eat the second bowl, then you really feel your mouth is burning. What do mortals know?
  After Su Chen filled the second bowl, everyone else also realized it.

This is not a simple meal, this is a war, a war that either you eat or I eat!
  Although He Shuting is good-looking, she doesn't pay attention to her image as long as she eats. From time to time, she raises her head and opens her mouth wide to breathe in the heat, but it still can't stop her from stuffing chicken into her mouth.

Fortunately, Liu Shengnan adopted the method of surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao. He first ate all the potatoes in the bowl, and then said calmly: "The potatoes are quite delicious. I'll have some more."

I was laughing secretly in my heart.

You have to spit out the bones to eat chicken, so eat more potatoes first to avoid eating nothing later.

Well, an accountant who knows how to stop losses is very qualified.

As a high school student, Xiaobin acted as if he was not afraid of being burned, so he was the third one to fill up a bowl.

Next is Aunt Fang.

After Ling Shuyu tried his best to finish the food in his bowl, he also wanted to stand up. He was stunned when he looked at the empty basin with only the bottom soup left.

"Boss, our employees can also place orders, right?"

It was the only way she could think of.

Su Chen nodded, "Not only is it possible, but there are also discounts."

Ling Shuyu sat down unwillingly, dipping his chopsticks into the remaining mashed potatoes in the bowl and swiping it several times.

"Ah, it's comfortable." Su Chen finished two bowls, "Aunt Fang, it's time to cook the noodles. Cook for 4 minutes and cover with cold water for 20 seconds. Just cook three portions!"

"okay!"

When they heard that the noodles were being cooked, everyone's unsatisfied expressions disappeared and they were replaced by expectations again.

Noodles, that’s it!

While all the employees of Meililai were waiting for the noodles, the second employee of Xinghui Company appeared.

"Assistant Zhang, let's have a meal together at noon before leaving." Wang Rui said regretfully.

No one could have imagined that two people would quit their jobs within one day!

The boss of the design department, and the assistant to the boss of the design department, it’s really heartbreaking!

Zhang Li handed her work badge to Wang Rui with a smile, "Who's going to eat with you? I'll go to Delicious Food in the afternoon to join the company. Mr. Ling said that I can still have lunch in the past. They're having fried chicken for lunch today. I'll give it to you. Watch the video!”

In the dialog box between Zhang Li and Ling Shuyu, there is a small video.

It was taken when Su Chen was frying chicken. The fried chicken was shiny and steaming. Wang Rui's throat trembled when he saw it. "Is this fried chicken for sale? It's exciting just looking at it!"

Zhang Li was even more proud, "This is an internal employee tasting food. How can you just eat it if you want? Okay, okay, I won't tell you anymore. I have to leave quickly. Don't let people wait for me to start." There’s no food left.”

Wang Rui looked at Zhang Li's retreating figure with envy.

If only I were as free and easy as her!
  Zhang Li hummed a little tune and walked briskly towards the 19th floor opposite, not forgetting to reply to a WeChat message to dear Mr. Ling.

[Zhang Li: It’s coming~ You eat it first when it’s ready, you don’t have to wait for me. I'm not hungry, so I can just eat a few bites. 】

Well, after all, I have just joined the job, and I still need to be polite with my new colleagues.

ding dong~
  Ling Shuyu's cell phone rang, but she couldn't care less about reading the message now.

Three large portions of noodles were poured into the basin, almost filling the basin!
  Aunt Fang used a pair of long serving chopsticks to stir the noodles diligently. Every time she stirred, a lot of noodles would be dipped in the sauce at the bottom.

Su Chen looked at this scene.

The choice of pouring out the sauce in advance was indeed the right one. For Jingzhou people, the soul of this fried chicken is not the potatoes and chicken, but the noodles!
  So it doesn’t really matter whether it’s a portion or a half portion, the key is that you have to enjoy the noodles!
  "Okay, the noodles are ready to eat." Aunt Fang still shouldered the important task of serving noodles.

No surprise, Su Chen was still the first.

Well, as a boss, you still have this priority.

The noodles picked up with chopsticks are coated in rich and thick fried chicken soup, and the aroma is overwhelming.

Su Chen suddenly stuffed a big mouthful into his mouth.

Bite another clove of raw garlic.

Damn it, this feels like a fairy! ! !
