After crossing, I was miserable.

Chapter 589: Chicken Stewed with Chestnuts

When Qian Duoduo turned to leave, she caught a glimpse of the anxious look on Su Sili's face that was hard to conceal from the corner of her eye, but she seemed not to notice and continued to walk forward with firm steps.

Su Sili's expression was like that of a very hungry little beast, with only one goal in his mind and eyes - to see Qian Yi as soon as possible!

And he actually kept saying that they just wanted to be a normal family?

I don’t know if the child hasn’t gotten the idea or if he really treats them as family members.

Of course, she also knows that some people did not have close family members when they were young, and they have a very strong attachment to the concept of "family".

Forget it, since Su Sili is so persistent, let’s just assume that what he said is true. Qian Duoduo decided to help him.

Qian Duoduo knew very well that she must not allow any factors that might interfere with Qian Yi's happy life to exist.

For this, she would not hesitate to pay a price, because for her, Qian Yi's happiness and peace were the most important.

What's more, it doesn't cost her anything, it's just adding one more person to the family tree.

Just as Qian Duoduo was about to reach the entrance of the villa, he saw a few familiar faces, all of whom were Bai Ningning's sisters.

Qian Duoduo chatted with them politely for a few words, and after seeing them off, he planned to wait at the door for a while.

Not long after, the figure of one of Qian Yi's servants hurriedly returning appeared in sight.

Back then, after Qian Xiaoqi was promoted and no longer by Qian Yi's side, Qian Yi was replaced by a somewhat honest and dutiful servant.

The servant dutifully took on the responsibility of taking care of Qian Yi's daily life.

However, as Qian Yi gradually entered the business field and his affairs became increasingly busy, he had a more alert and flexible servant by his side to help him deal with various complicated affairs.

The young servant who returned this time was the one with a simple and honest character.

"My humble servant greets the young lady." The servant immediately dismounted and ran over after seeing Qian Duoduo.

"Get up quickly, don't worry. Where is my brother?"

"My dear Miss, the young master said that he would be 2 minutes later than usual, and asked me to come back and tell her that she and the second young master can eat first and don't need to wait for him."

"So will he come back for dinner? Or will he eat outside?"

"Yes, Miss, I'm back for dinner, but it's a little late."

"That's fine. I'll go get ready now and wait for him."

"Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, let's go to the kitchen first."

"Yes."

Qian Duoduo took two maids to the kitchen to prepare chestnut chicken.

I thought I wouldn’t have enough time to make the chestnut chicken, but since I came back late, that’s just fine.

"Chun Xia, go to the catering department to find Chef Zhang and tell him that I'm going to make chestnut chicken. Ask him to arrange for someone to come over."

"Yes."

Not long after, Master Zhang came over by himself.

"Oh, Master Zhang is here?" Qian Duoduo didn't expect that Master Zhang would come here again. "But I'm only making a small dish this time, chicken stewed with chestnuts. I guess you'll be disappointed."

"Haha, how could that be? Miss, you are too polite. There is no distinction between main dishes and side dishes in a cuisine. As long as it tastes good, it is a good dish." Chef Zhang said generously, "Is it the chestnut I know about?"

"Yes, it's the chestnuts that can be found everywhere in the mountains. But they may not be easy to handle, so few people eat them, and of course even fewer people cook them.

But chestnuts are a good thing! The benefits they contain are really innumerable!

First of all, chestnuts are rich in carbohydrates, proteins, and various vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, which can provide our bodies with sufficient energy and nutrients.

Secondly, chestnuts have the effect of strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach. For those with weak spleen and stomach, eating them in moderation can play a good conditioning role.

Furthermore, chestnuts have the effect of nourishing the kidneys and strengthening the tendons, which helps to enhance physical fitness and improve immunity.

In addition, chestnuts are high in dietary fiber, which can promote intestinal motility, help digestion and prevent constipation.

Moreover, whether it is boiled, fried or made into various delicious pastries, it has a unique flavor that makes people linger in the aftertaste.

In short, chestnuts are not only sweet and delicious, but also have many properties that are beneficial to the human body. They are really a rare delicacy!"

"Wow, there are so many benefits. What did you make today?" Master Zhang was surprised that ordinary chestnuts have so many benefits.

“Today we are going to make the fragrant chestnut stewed chicken! First of all, we have to carefully select fresh and plump chicken and plump chestnuts as the main ingredients of this dish.

Then clean the chicken and cut it into pieces of appropriate size for later use. Then blanch the chestnuts in boiling water so that the skin can be easily removed.

Prepare some onion, ginger, garlic and other ingredients, cut them into pieces or sections and set them aside. Once everything is ready, you can officially start cooking!

In fact, the steps are very simple, but the heat must be controlled well. "

Qian Duoduo explained while doing it.

"How long does it take to make this delicious chestnut stewed chicken?" Chef Zhang wanted to know.

“It all starts with preparing the ingredients!

First, we have to select fresh and plump chicken and sweet and soft chestnuts as the main ingredients.

Then comes a series of tedious but fun cooking steps!

Wash the chicken, cut it into pieces, and blanch it in cold water to remove the fishy smell; then peel the chestnuts and set aside.

Then heat the oil in a pan, add the onion, ginger and garlic, stir-fry until fragrant, then add the chicken and stir-fry until the surface is slightly yellow. Then pour in an appropriate amount of water, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for about three quarters of an hour. Let the chicken fully absorb the delicious taste of the soup.

When the chicken is almost cooked, add the pre-processed chestnuts and continue stewing for about 25 minutes, until the chestnuts become soft and tasty and melt in your mouth.

Finally, season it appropriately according to your personal taste, sprinkle some chopped green onions or coriander for garnish, and you're done with a delicious chestnut stewed chicken!

In general, if you take into account the preliminary preparation work and various detailed operations in the entire cooking process, it takes about one hour and three quarters of an hour to complete this chestnut stewed chicken.

Of course, the specific time required will also be affected by factors such as the size of the stove fire and the cooking utensils used, but as long as you wait patiently, I believe that what will be presented to you in the end will definitely be a mouth-watering delicacy! "

As usual, Chef Zhang is responsible for eating the first bowl.

While waiting, the two chatted about the recent catering situation.

"Fortunately, the eldest lady requires apprentices to sign a contract to sell themselves. Otherwise, if they just learn to cook any dish and sell it outside, they can make a lot of money."

"It's not that exaggerated. I'm just restraining them. After all, human hearts are unpredictable."

"The young lady is right."

Just when the two of them had finished chatting, Qian Yi came back.
