Steamed Spicy Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Place chicken and salt in a bowl. Evenly rub salt into chicken. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Rinse chicken and place in a pot fitted with a steamer basket over water. Bring water to a boil, and steam chicken until juices run clear, about 30 minutes.
• Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion and cook until tender. Mix in garlic, and cook about 1 minute. Stir in soy sauce and sesame oil, and remove from heat. Scoop over the chicken to serve. Garnish with cilantro.

Steps:

• Mix together brown sugar, honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and hot sauce in a small bowl.
• Lightly salt and pepper the chicken strips.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken strips and brown on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Simmer uncovered until the sauce thickens, 8 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Reconstitute dried ancho chile peppers by placing in a bowl, covering with boiling water, and letting sit for 10 minutes. Do the same with the chipotle chile peppers, but give them 15 minutes to sit.
• Remove ancho chile peppers from the water, remove seeds and veins, and cut into small strips. Remove chipotle chile peppers from the water and remove stems, leaving peppers whole.
• Combine ancho chiles, chipotle chiles, tomato sauce, and garlic in a blender and process until fairly smooth. While mixing, add cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper to the marinade and blend.
• Place chicken breasts and thighs in a large bowl and cover with marinade. Cover and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Divide chicken and sauce evenly onto 4 sheets of parchment paper and tie closed with string.
• Pour equal amounts of beer and water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add a bamboo steamer and place parchment packets inside. Steam until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear, about 35 minutes.
• Serve chicken with hot cooked rice and garnish with cilantro.

Steps:

• Steam chicken:
• Fit a large steamer rack inside a large wide pot. Add enough water to reach within 1/2 inch of bottom of rack. Bring to a boil.
• Pat chicken dry and put, skin side up, in a shallow bowl (that will fit on steamer rack inside pot). Sprinkle with ginger and steam, covered, over high heat, until chicken is just cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes (replenish water if necessary).
• Carefully remove bowl with chicken. Pour off juices into a glass measure and set aside 1/4 cup (reserve remainder for another use). Return chicken in bowl to pot and keep warm, covered, off heat.
• Make sauce:
• Heat a wok or large heavy skillet (not nonstick) over high heat until smoking, then drizzle oil down side of wok and swirl to coat. Reduce heat to medium, then add garlic and stir-fry 15 seconds. Add chiles and stir-fry 15 seconds. Add cilantro and stir-fry 1 minute. Stir in remaining ingredients, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup chicken juices and simmer 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl.
• Drizzle some sauce over chicken (include some solids for a spicier sauce); serve the rest on the side. Season chicken with salt.

Steps:

• To make Spice paste: soak the chillies in hot water for 30 minutes or until soft; drain. Place the softened chilies and salt in a food processor and process until a smooth paste is formed. Add all the other paste ingredients one at a time while continuing to run the processor.
• Combine the coconut cream, brown sugar, fish sauce in a large bowl. Add the spice paste and stir together until well combined.
• Stir in the chicken strips.
• Select a round heatproof serving dish which will fit into a large, deep pan. Put the spinach onto the serving dish. Spoon the spicy chicken mixture over the spinach.
• Place a saucer or rack on the base of the pan and pour enough boing water to cover it. Place the dish on top of the saucer or each, cover the pan with a tight fitting lid and steam over medium heat for about 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked.
• Check from time to time that there is enough water in the pan.
• Serve with rice.

Steps:

• Combine minced chiken with curry paste, fish sauce, coconut milk, shredded coconut, lime leave/zest, pepper and beaten egg.
• Line a baking dish that will fit inside a steamer with banana leaves or aluminum foil.
• Place layers of green vegetables over the bottom.
• Cover with chicken mixture.
• Top with thick coconut cream.
• Garnish with coriander springs.
• Steam for 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Place chicken thighs in a medium saucepan and add just enough water to cover completely. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove chicken and allow to cool slightly, reserving cooking liquid.
• Combine soy sauce, ginger, pepper flakes, and green onion in a small jar, shake well and set aside.
• Cut chicken into chunks and place in bowl of food processor. Add mushrooms, onion, hoisin, mustard, and sriracha. Process until ground and well combined.
• Beat egg with the 1 tsp water. Working in small batches, place 1 tbsp of meat mixture on center of each wonton wrapper. Brush two edges with egg wash and fold up sides, corner to corner, to seal well around filling. Fold top corner over and secure with a little more egg wash if desired.
• Bring reserved cooking liquid to simmer in a pan with a steamer basket. Spray basket with cooking spray and place dumplings in basket.
• Cover with lid and steam 8-10 minutes.
• If you would rather cook these like potstickers with a crispy bottom, spray a shallow pan with cooking spray and set over medium heat. Set dumplings directly in pan and pour hot cooking liquid around dumplings to about 1/2 inch deep. Cover and cook 5-6 minutes or until bottoms are brown and crispy. Don't move them around during cooking or they will stick and tear.
• Serve with sauce.
