Spice the Plate - Traditional and Modern Asian Cooking at Home
This week, I want to share a summer chicken skin salad recipe with yall. Delicious, affordable and easy-to-assemble, I cant wait to share it with you and I hope youll like this recipe as much as we do.
The main ingredient is, of course, the chicken skin. I found it at our local Asian grocery store, it comes pre-packaged and costs only about $3 for a full pounds worth in the meat section. I also used carrot and leek to add texture, color and flavor to the dish.
To start, I julienned the carrot and leek (if you dont have leek handy, scallion is a great alternative as well), and cut the chicken skin into long strips. Now its time to cook the chicken skin by adding them into a pot, filling with cold water, bringing to boil and simmering until chicken skins fully cooked. For carrot and green onion, I like to blanch them separately and combine with the cooked chicken skin in a bowl to cool down.
Here comes the highlight of this Summer Chicken Skin Salad, the seasoning! To add a nice spice kick that complements the richness of the chicken skin, I mixed together Black Bean in Chili Oil sauce (one of the most popular chili oil sauce in China), soy sauce, sugar and salt for the dressing.
Pair with a bowl of white rice is my familys favorite way to enjoy this dish.
