The fact is that in stores most often they sell chicken meat obtained from factories where birds spend their whole lives in cages, sitting in the same place. At this expense, they are overgrown with meat, which is then profitably sold. But in this article we will focus on domestic chicken. This is a completely different type of bird that requires a special approach. Very often on the net you can read questions about what to cook from homemade chicken. Many people find that its meat is too tough, so they immediately refuse to have anything to do with this bird at all. You shouldn't be so drastic. In this article, you will learn how to choose the best domestic chicken how it differs from the factory one, how to prepare it, and also what to cook from homemade chicken. Thus, if you read this article, you will have an idea of ​​\u200b\u200bwhat to do if you get your hands on home-made, not factory-made chicken.

Domestic chicken: what does it mean?

So, it must be assumed that not all readers are experienced chefs so it's worth starting with the basics. This means that it will not immediately tell you what to cook from homemade chicken. Rather, you will find out what domestic chicken is, because many people before reading this article had no idea that chicken meat can be divided according to a similar principle. So, a domestic chicken is a bird that grew up on a farm or on someone's farm. This means that she moved freely, ate natural food, led a full life, until, for one reason or another, she was slaughtered for meat. Accordingly, you should not be afraid of such a product, since it is generally a completely normal alternative to ordinary store-bought chicken. That is why this article will consider what to cook from homemade chicken, because, despite the widespread belief that the meat of such a chicken is not suitable for cooking, as it is too tough, it can still be cooked, and more than successfully. But first of all, it is worth addressing the issue of stiffness and softness of meat.

Laying hens

If you are thinking about how to cook delicious homemade chicken, everything will depend on what type of chicken you got. The fact is that all these birds are divided into layers and broilers. Laying hens are those hens that are used on the farm to lay eggs. They often live much longer than everyone else, because they do not lose the ability to lay eggs for a long time, and no one is interested in their meat. Yes, if a carcass of a laying hen fell into your hands, then with almost one hundred percent probability it can be argued that its meat will be tough, so you may experience certain difficulties with its preparation. And the question of how to cook delicious homemade chicken will be quite difficult to answer, but still possible. What about domestic broilers?

Broilers

When it comes to what can be cooked from homemade chicken, most often it is about broilers, because they, despite the fact that they grew up in free conditions, have much more pleasant meat. That is why, if you have the opportunity to choose which homemade chicken to cook, you should definitely make a choice in favor of a broiler, and not in favor of a laying hen. How to distinguish them from each other? This will be discussed a little later, when the question of how to cook homemade chicken so that it is soft will be considered in more detail. In the meantime, it is worth considering in detail the difference between domestic and factory birds.

What is the difference between homemade chickens and factory chickens?

Many people believe that domestic chicken is almost poisonous, so they refuse to cook it or eat it. Do not listen to such statements, because they only mislead you. It is better to think about how to cook homemade chicken pilaf or how to make other delicious dishes from meat that is considered unsuitable for use. You can be calm, because homemade chicken is practically no worse than factory chicken, and in some aspects even better. If you do not believe, then you should find out certain details about both methods of raising these birds. factory chickens in huge quantities are grown in cramped cages where they cannot move, thus achieving the maximum amount of meat compared to poultry. What's more, in advanced factories, birds can be fed hormones to make the meat grow even faster. Given the far from the most pleasant living conditions, such chickens are prone to a wide variety of diseases, so in most cases they are constantly fed with antibiotics, and this naturally affects their body, that is, their meat, which you then eat.

If you take domestic chickens, then they spend their whole lives as full-fledged birds. They walk on lawns, eat natural food, which makes their meat much more useful and also low in calories (due to the huge difference between constantly being in one place in the cage and constantly moving in the fresh air). Thus, domestic chickens are practically dietary, especially when compared with factory ones. So if you are asked how to cook homemade stew from chicken originating from a private yard, you should clarify that homemade chicken is in no way inferior to factory chicken, therefore it deserves a fully tasty recipe.

Cooking rules

If you want to learn how to cook homemade chicken, recipes with photos are not always the best helpers. The fact is that the recipes for cooking homemade chicken are no different from those recipes that you use for factory store chicken. The main differences are how exactly you prepare the bird. That is why in this article you will find the key rules for cooking this type of meat, which will allow you to achieve the perfect result, which will be extremely difficult to distinguish from store-bought meat. Moreover, do not forget that homemade chicken meat has an equally impressive taste, so get ready for new unforgettable sensations.

bird age

It's not a big secret, but if you didn't already know this, then you should remember that chickens in factories do not live to be a year old and in most cases are sent for meat at the age of six months to a year. The same applies to poultry, if they want to get a quality product from them. What is the reason? Here it is just worth returning to the most common opinion that domestic chickens have tough meat. The fact is that the meat is tough not in domestic chickens, but in those birds that are more than a year old. Accordingly, you need to focus on buying those birds that are not yet twelve months old. And if in the case of factory birds you definitely do not make a mistake, since all the chickens there are younger than a year, then in the case of poultry you need to be careful.

bluish skin

Another rule that you should always follow is directly related to the previous one. You already know that meat is tough in birds that live for more than a year, and most often laying hens live that long, which lay eggs for several years. Naturally, when such a bird dies or stops laying eggs, they do not want to throw it away, but prefer to sell it. You should not go on about and buy such a bird for the reason that it is cheaper. Look carefully at the skin of the chicken you want to buy. If it is cyanotic, refuse to buy, as you have a layer in front of you, the meat of which will be very dry. Broilers under the age of one year are most often distinguished by a yellow-white skin, so you can focus on this color when buying domestic chickens.

Boiling chicken

Well, now you know almost everything there is to know about homemade chicken, so it's time to move on to the preparation. How to cook delicious homemade chicken? Recipes can be very diverse, but first you need to determine which chicken is in your hands. What to do if you still got a laying hen or a bird that is more than a year old? Do not get upset and throw it away, as the situation can still be saved. To do this, you will need to be patient and boil this chicken for at least two hours. Then its meat will soften significantly, and you can use it to cook the dish that interests you most.

Cooking in the oven

The fact is that some people like to fry the bird, and someone prefers to boil or stew it. But if you got homemade chicken, you better opt for an oven. How to cook soft homemade chicken in the oven?

If this is a domestic chicken, it is also recommended to make cuts in it and put pieces there butter for even more impressive results.

Today we will talk about how to cook homemade chicken soft and juicy.

Ingredients

  • domestic chicken - 1.5 kg
  • salt - 1.5-2 tsp.
  • a mixture of ground peppers - 2-3 chips.

  • large onion - 1 pc.
  • parsley - 0.5 bunch.
  • bay leaf - 1 pc.
  • hot water - 2-2.5 l

How to cook homemade chicken

She shifted the meat into a deep bowl, sprinkling the pieces with salt and ground pepper. I squeezed in half a lemon. Onion peeled and cut into thin half rings, squeezed it with force into a bowl with chicken so that as much juice as possible stood out. I left the bird in this form to marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator (you can overnight). The acids found in lemon and onion will soften the meat fibers a little, and the chicken will become more tender.

After the specified time, I fried the chicken to seal the meat juices inside each piece. The meat was fried in portions, on a very hot, always dry frying pan for about 3-4 minutes on each side, without a lid, at maximum heat.

Then, in the same frying pan, the onion, which was used for pickling, was sautéed in melted fat.

Browned chicken and onions (without fat, it can be drained) were transferred to a saucepan with a thick bottom. I added bay leaf and parsley tied with a thread to make it easier to remove them from the finished broth. Pour boiling water over so that the liquid covers the contents of the pan by 2-3 centimeters.

Bring to a boil, remove the foam and simmer for 2 hours. The fire must be medium all the time, otherwise the meat simply will not cook properly. If after the specified time the meat is still tough, then you got a very old chicken, you will have to stew it for an additional 1 hour - usually this time is more than enough to make it soft and tender. Hot water can be added if necessary. In the last hour of cooking, you can add peeled and coarsely chopped potatoes to the pan, then you will immediately get a side dish. Readiness is most conveniently checked with a fork, if the meat easily moves away from the bone and is divided into fibers, then you can remove the pan from the heat.

Chicken braised in own juice in a saucepan, it turns out fragrant, soft and juicy. During cooking, a lot of fat will melt, which will float to the surface of the broth, it can be carefully removed with a spoon, scooping up only the top layer. The remaining broth can be used to cook a delicious noodle soup or just serve it with boiled egg, herbs and crackers. Bon Appetit!

There are different breeds, which are conventionally divided into laying hens and broilers. So, in laying hens, and even more so in older ones, the meat is really harsh. But in broilers, and even those grown “on free bread”, it has an amazingly delicate and rich taste.

Subtleties of cooking poultry meat

Juicy chicken in the oven will turn out from a broiler carcass. It is distinguished by a rounded breast, large hips. It is ideal to choose fresh meat - its skin will be white with yellowness, and the protruding fat will be ideal whiteness.

By the way, you should not expect high fat content from poultry. Due to the fact that she is grown in the wild, walks around the yard or in the aviary, she does not have time to gain fat.

Today the site "Culinary Eden" has collected and recorded for you the most important tips and secrets, coupled with proven recipes, which will surely help even the most inexperienced housewives and easily tell you how to cook homemade chicken.

1. First of all, let's figure out where we can get a real village domestic chicken. Do not even look for such chickens in stores, they simply do not exist there. At collective farm and farmer markets, buy domestic chickens only from trusted sellers, because, unfortunately, now even chickens are falsified: they tint ordinary store chickens with turmeric and pass them off as domestic chickens, hoping for the inexperience of the buyer. It is best to buy domestic chickens directly from those who raise them. If you ask around, you will probably find someone who knows village grandmothers or good conscientious farmers who raise free-range chickens. Usually, you can drive up to such producers on your own, and they will personally slaughter and prepare the freshest chicken for you, and you will be able to see with your own eyes the conditions of keeping the chickens offered to you.

2. If you still decide to buy chicken in the market, choose your purchase very carefully. First of all, decide what kind of dish you need homemade chicken for. For broths and soups, a laying hen about a year old is best. Such a chicken should weigh no more than one and a half kilograms, the legs of such a domestic chicken should be long, the sternum is rather hard, the chicken itself should be lean, not too fat. If you are going to buy a chicken for cooking main courses, then choose a chicken weighing no more than a kilogram, with a breast bone that is still quite soft, with legs that are still bright, yellow, and not white. To the touch, the meat of such a chicken will be soft, and the bones will be thin and fragile. Often, modern breeds of free-range broilers are also called domestic chickens. Of course, such chickens have more meat, they are both fatter and softer than laying hens, and it is much easier to cook them. One problem - in taste and aroma, even such home-made broilers do not reach real village chickens, although they, of course, are tastier than store-bought broilers. Here the choice is yours. Try it and choose for yourself which homemade chickens you like best.

3. Having made your choice, inspect the chicken more carefully. Next, carefully inspect the carcass of your chosen chicken. A good domestic hen will have blue drumsticks and yellow thighs due to fat. The skin of a good chicken will be quite thin, slightly transparent, yellowish. Don't buy a chicken with too white or evenly colored yellowish skin - such a carcass was probably soaked in chlorine or tinted with turmeric to give it a more attractive presentation, but is it worth it to buy from a seller who tries to deceive you from the very beginning? Be sure to smell the chicken of your choice! A good rural domestic chicken has a rather thick but pleasant smell. If the chicken offered to you has the usual slightly sweetish, barely noticeable smell, you are being deceived, passing off an ordinary industrial bird as a domestic one. And, of course, make sure that the bird you are offering is fresh: look to see if it has weathered skin, smell if the chicken has begun to deteriorate, feel if the meat has lost its elasticity - everything is as usual when choosing a fresh bird.

Carefully inspect it, because even a very well-plucked and singed chicken could have small stumps from feathers lost in the deep layers of the skin - just pull them out with tweezers. If you are going to boil your chicken broth, the preparation is over. If you bought chicken for stewing or frying, soak it for a couple of hours in salted water, this will give the chicken meat extra juiciness and softness. After soaking, rinse your chicken thoroughly again and pat dry. Do not soak domestic chicken in milk or water with vinegar!
