Brilio.net - Processing kampung chicken does have its own challenges, especially because the texture tends to be tough even though it has been boiled for a long time. Kampung chicken is known for its meat which is tougher than broiler chicken, so even though it has been cooked for a long time, the meat can still be difficult to cut or chew. This often makes the process of cooking kampung chicken take longer, especially if you want to get tender results that are easy to separate from the bones.

One solution that is widely used by housewives or chefs is to use a pressure cooker. This cooking tool is able to produce high pressure that speeds up the cooking process, eliminates the hardness of the free-range chicken meat, and makes it more tender in a much shorter time. The pressure cooker works by cooking with hot steam at high pressure, which can soften the meat fibers without having to cook it for hours, so that the free-range chicken can be served faster in a softer and more delicious form.

Although using a pressure cooker is very helpful in overcoming this challenge, unfortunately not everyone has a special pot. So instead, you can use a trick from YouTube user Resep Masakan Sederhana Reman. Through one of the videos uploaded, he admitted that he only relied on a regular pot to be able to make free-range chicken tender in just 15 minutes.

As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Resep Masakan Sederhana Reman on Monday (20/1), the first thing to do is to wash the free-range chicken thoroughly. After that, boil water in a pan until it boils. While waiting for it to boil, add two thumbs of ginger that have been crushed.

"The purpose of adding ginger is to prevent the fishy smell and also to speed up the process of tenderizing the free-range chicken," said YouTube Resep Masakan Sederhana Reman.

Then after adding ginger, add 1.5 tsp of salt to make it taste more savory. Well, then when the water is boiling, add the pieces of free-range chicken that have been washed clean. Make sure all parts of the chicken are completely submerged, okay?

Next, cover the pan and boil the chicken for 5 minutes. After that, turn off the stove and let it sit for 30 minutes with the pan still covered. Then, boil it again for 10 minutes, counting from when the water boils again. All of these processes are done with the pan covered, yes.

The chicken meat that has been boiled for a total of 15 minutes can be immediately removed. Who would have thought, even though it was boiled for a short time, the results of the free-range chicken were really tender. Even the meat can be peeled off easily like when it is pressure-cooked.

This video about the trick of processing free-range chicken has been watched more than 134 thousand times. It is no wonder that many other YouTube users then gave direct responses in the comments column. Most even claimed to have successfully applied the trick.
