Brilio.net - Consuming protein every day is very important to maintain a healthy body. Chicken meat is one of the popular sources of protein among the people. Based on information from chickencheck.in, chicken meat is not only rich in protein, but also contains various vitamins, minerals, and fats that are useful for strengthening bones, improving the immune system, and maintaining heart health.
In addition to its good nutritional content, chicken meat is also favored for its delicious taste and flexibility in processing . Various cooking methods such as frying, grilling, boiling for soup, steaming, making pepes, or stir-frying can be applied to chicken meat. However, even though it has been seasoned well, chicken meat that is not processed properly can produce a tough texture, reducing the pleasure when eating it.
The common method used to tenderize chicken is by marinating it with vinegar and salt. However, there is another effective way to produce very tender chicken. This method is shared through a video upload on the YouTube account Grey cocinando.
In the video, it is explained that there are simple ingredients that can be used to get very tender chicken meat without changing the original taste to be strange. This information was quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube Gray cocinando on Tuesday (1/10).
First, mix egg white, salt, and cornstarch to taste in a bowl. Mix the three ingredients well. Then add the pieces of fish you want to process. Stir again until all the fish are covered in marinade.

Once marinated, it's time to continue the process of tenderizing the chicken. First, prepare a pan filled with water, then add a little oil. Heat the water until it boils, then add the chicken. Cook the chicken for 30 to 60 seconds only to make it tender, not until it is cooked.

After 30 or 60 seconds of being left in the boiling water, the chicken can be immediately removed and drained until the water is completely gone. Now, this chicken meat is tender and ready to be cooked into various dishes according to taste.
"It's not cooked, the chicken is still raw, but this is an excellent base for any recipe you are gonna use. This way makes the moisture stays in the chicken," said YouTube account owner Grey cocinando.
