Summer Chicken Skin Salad Founded with the vision of creating a trusted information source
This week, I want to share a summer chicken skin salad recipe with y’all. Delicious, affordable and easy-to-assemble, I can’t wait to share it with you and I hope you’ll 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 pound’s 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 don’t have leek handy, scallion is a great alternative as well), and cut the chicken skin into long strips. Now it’s time to cook the chicken skin by adding them into a pot, filling with cold water, bringing to boil and simmering until chicken skin’s 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.
This is the perfect quick meal for the summer, it only takes 15 mins to make and is both refreshing and bold in flavor.
Pair with a bowl of white rice is my family’s favorite way to enjoy this dish.
I hope you enjoy this tasty summer chicken salad recipe. Leave a comment below to let us know your thoughts about this recipe or share it with your friends and family! Till next time!
