Cooking skills of Longjing tea chicken

1. The tea aroma that seeps into the chicken is not boiled, but brewed. You pay attention to follow my steps, don’t be greedy, no matter how good the tea is boiled for a long time, it will be bitter~ 2. In order to make this Longjing tea-flavored chicken more fragrant, I also used two careful machines: First, rice wine is added when marinating. Sweet and mellow rice wine, the effect of removing fishy smell and freshness is first-class, and after the alcohol is volatilized, it will leave a soft aroma; The second is to add tangerine peel and licorice to the spice pack of brine, which can bring a sweet taste while dissolving the greasy. 3. I also put some sweet corn on the bottom, and the cuties can also use yam, lotus root, and carrots instead.
