Chicken aspic. Chicken jellied meat - a dietary version of the famous snack

Good afternoon friends!

I know you love jellied meat! And it doesn’t matter what kind of recipe it is - chicken, turkey or pork knuckle. It's just a collagen bomb.

There are a lot of cooking recipes, but the main and integral ingredients are bones and cartilage. Thanks to them, during long-term cooking, the same animal protein is obtained, on which the strength and elasticity of our tissues - cartilage, tendons, bones - depends.

Classic jellied meat is always prepared without gelatin, as there is no need for it. Chicken legs and wings, pork knuckle, turkey and beef legs perfectly gel the broth when cooled. But aspic and chicken in a bottle are prepared with gelatin, which is needed there for hardening.

If you need to prepare assorted pork and beef or a pig in a bottle for the New Year, you can look at the recipe

And we will continue to prepare delicious and simple recipes for real chicken jellied meat. Join us!

Classic chicken jellied meat - recipe without gelatin


In this recipe you will find useful tips for preparing low-fat, clean, clear broth, very tasty jellied meat. Step-by-step preparation will help even the youngest housewife.


Ingredients:

  • chicken feet, drumsticks, wings - 500 g
  • poultry meat (chicken, duck, turkey) - 1 kg
  • carrots - 2 pcs.
  • onion - 1 pc.
  • parsley root
  • garlic - 2-3 cloves (optional)
  • peppercorns - 5-6 pcs.
  • ground black pepper - to taste
  • bay leaf - 1-2 pcs.
  • greens - a bunch
  • salt - to taste

Preparation:

1. At the supermarket we buy a chilled ready-made set for chicken jellied meat. We take a piece of meat from two different birds - chicken and turkey. From this entire meat set we will get a rich, strong, transparent broth.

2. To prepare such a broth, you must maintain the correct ratio of water and food. We follow four rules:

For 1 kg of meat there should be 500 g of bones, joints and cartilage

The water in the pan should be 1/3 more than the volume of all other products

In order not to worsen the taste of the finished broth, do not add water during the cooking process.

Cook the broth over low heat, without boiling

3. When cooking broths from old chickens, the amount of water needs to be increased, because they cook longer, and therefore more water will evaporate.

4. Place the meat products in a large saucepan with cold water, put on the fire, and heat to a boil.

5. At the moment of boiling, carefully collect the foam and fat. To remove any remaining foam, add a small pinch of citric acid to the broth.

6. Cook for 2-2.5 hours over very low heat, with the lid slightly open. Our broth does not boil, but simply “breathes.” The cooking time will depend on the type of meat and the size of the carcass.


7. In the middle of cooking, put carrots, peeled onions, parsley root, and some salt into the pan. 15 minutes before readiness, add peppercorns, bay leaves, and herbs.


8. Remove the finished meat and vegetables from the broth and let it cool slightly. We free the meat from bones, cartilage and skin residues.

9. We put the onion and parsley root in the basket, they have done their job and we won’t need them anymore. Leave the carrots for decoration.

10. Using our hands, we separate the meat into fibers, trying not to miss a single bone. We separate the soft cartilage, finely chop it and send it back to the meat.


11. Strain the finished broth, season to taste with salt and ground black pepper. If desired, you can add grated garlic.

12. Place slices of boiled carrots, parsley leaves, dill on the bottom of the portion molds, boneless meat on top, fill with chilled broth and take out to a cold place.

13. Before serving, dip the molds into a bowl of boiling water, turn them over and place them on flat plates. We decorate the edges of the dish with fresh herbs and favorite seasonal berries. Serve with horseradish.

Chicken jellied meat with turkey legs

Nutritious and light chicken and turkey jellied meat without gelatin is what you need for your diet. Watch and remember this simple recipe.

Homemade jellied meat. Delicious chicken and pork feet recipe

I offer a recipe for a very tasty jellied chicken and pork legs. The ideal one comes from a rooster or old chickens. The rooster will make a rich, tasty broth. And pork legs gel perfectly when cooled.


Ingredients:

  • rooster - about 1 kg
  • pork legs - 1 kg
  • carrots - 1 pc.
  • onion - 1 pc.
  • parsley root - 1 pc.
  • bay leaf - 2-3 pcs.
  • garlic - 3-4 cloves
  • allspice peas – 8-10 pcs.
  • salt - to taste

Preparation:

1. Cut off the legs, neck and wings of the rooster. Cut the carcass into 6-8 parts.

2. Soak the pork legs in water for at least 3 hours. The remaining clotted blood will leave the meat and the skin will soften. Carefully scrape the scorched areas and cut them into pieces.

3. Place the meat in a large saucepan.

Fill with cold water at the rate of 2 liters of water per 1 kg of meat and cook for 5-6 hours, periodically removing foam and floating fat.

4. Keep in mind that the water will boil away during the cooking process, and it is not advisable to add it. Cook the meat at low boil. With rapid boiling, we risk getting a cloudy broth.


5. 1 hour before the end of cooking, add root vegetables and onions. After another 30 minutes, add bay leaf, allspice and salt. Add enough salt so that the broth is slightly salty. Once it hardens, it will taste perfect.

A well-cleaned broth from foam will turn out transparent, and the onion in the husk will color it a beautiful amber color

6. As soon as the meat begins to separate from the bones, remove and cool slightly. We put the onion and parsley root in the basket; we won’t need them anymore. Leave the carrots for decoration (optional).

7. Strain the broth through a fine sieve 2-3 times. We disassemble the meat with our hands so that we don’t get any small bones. Soft cartilage gives the jellied meat strength and gives it an extra taste; we don’t throw anything away. Chop finely and return to meat.


8. Add garlic passed through a press. In the recipe I indicated the average amount of garlic, vary according to your taste.

9. Fill the meat with broth, cool and transfer to the refrigerator to completely harden, for at least 5-6 hours.

10. Pour the jellied meat into shaped molds, and when serving, turn the mold over and place the frozen appetizer on a flat plate.


11. Cut into portions. Serve with horseradish or mustard. I really like this kind of food, it’s high in calories and healthy. Bon appetit!

We continue to cook the broth over low heat for -1 hour, periodically skimming off the foam and resulting fat. This gives us the opportunity to achieve transparency in the broth.

3. Add onions and carrots, bay leaves, peppercorns, if desired, and salt to the broth.

The broth should be slightly salted.

Continue cooking the jellied meat over low heat for 4 hours. As soon as the meat begins to separate from the bone, our jellied meat is ready.

Jellied meat is usually not cooked often, since this dish is very high in calories. If everything is done correctly, the jellied meat will freeze well and turn out tasty, but it will take a lot of time to prepare. Therefore, in many families, jellied meat is cooked for the festive table to please the household and treat guests to something tasty. I'll show you how to cook delicious jellied meat, spending a minimum of free time. For this we need homemade chicken, spices, water and, of course, patience.

Ingredients for homemade chicken jellied meat:

  • whole chicken – 1 pc.;
  • water – 4 l;
  • carrots – 1 pc.;
  • onion – 1 pc.;
  • black peppercorns – 5-7 pcs.;
  • salt – 2 tbsp;
  • garlic – 5 teeth;
  • potatoes – 1 pc.;
  • bay leaf – 2 pcs.;
  • greens for decoration (optional).

Step-by-step recipe for homemade chicken jellied meat with photos:

Jellied meat is prepared in several stages. On the first one, I cut the chicken into portions, place it in a large saucepan and fill it with plenty of cold water. This is necessary so that the ichor comes out of the meat, then the jellied meat will turn out light. I leave it for at least 2 hours.

I drain the water in which the chicken was soaked. I fill it with fresh cold water and put the pan on the fire. After the water boils, reduce the heat to low and cook the chicken without covering the pan with a lid. At this stage it is important to constantly remove the emerging foam. This can be done conveniently using a large slotted spoon. If you do not skim the foam, the broth will be cloudy and the jellied meat will not turn out beautiful. I cook it for a long time, for four hours.

After the specified time has passed, I remove the chicken pieces from the broth. I leave them aside to cool a little.

Without wasting time, I prepare the broth for the jellied meat. I add one peeled potato, several bay leaves, black peppercorns, carrots and onions to the broth.

To make the jellied meat aromatic, I don’t skimp on the garlic. I pass the peeled garlic cloves through a press twice. Add the broth to the garlic and cook over low heat for 20 minutes. Don't forget to add salt to taste.

I dilute gelatin in a small bowl to make sure that the jellied meat will definitely harden. I take a little broth with a ladle, dilute gelatin in it and leave it for a while to swell. I add everything to the broth, mix thoroughly and turn off the heat. I let the broth brew and cool a little.

While the broth is cooling, I work on the chicken. I remove the meat from the bones and place it in portioned plates. I leave the wings and drumsticks on the bone. I carefully lay everything out, add a sprig of fresh dill and a couple of circles of boiled carrots. You can do without additional decorations, it all depends on your preferences and taste.

I strain the cooled broth through a fine sieve several times. This is necessary so that the jellied meat turns out transparent and homogeneous. Fat will be visible on the surface of the broth; it should be removed with a ladle to make the dish less nutritious. In addition, congealed fat will spoil the taste of jellied meat and its appearance.

I pour the broth into plates, and then put them in the refrigerator until completely frozen. The finished jellied meat is served with horseradish or mustard. Enjoy your meal!

Probably everyone is familiar with the internal dialogue about what to feed the family, what products to buy and what tasty treats to please. Let's prepare a simple and tasty dish - perfectly frozen chicken jellied meat, the recipe of which is easy to implement by adding gelatin to harden it.

Preparation

  1. We start preparing chicken jellied meat by preparing the carcass for boiling. Poultry is generally fatty and has tougher meat fibers. Before cooking poultry, singe it over an open fire and cut it into 4 pieces.

* Cook's Advice
Wondering how to cook chicken jellied meat according to a dietary recipe?
When cutting up a chicken, remove the skin (a very high-calorie part of the carcass), remove all the fat and cut off the tail (the wedge-shaped tail part). Firstly, by doing this we significantly reduce the calorie content of the dish, and secondly, we increase the aesthetics of the treat by depriving it of fat frozen on the surface.

  1. Place the prepared chicken in a spacious pan and fill it with cold purified water to a level of 4-5 cm above the meat pieces. Place the pan on the stove, ensuring medium heat under it. As the contents of the pan boil, remove the whites that have curled into foam. After waiting for it to boil, turn the heat to low, cover with a lid (not tightly) and cook for at least 4-5 hours. If necessary, remove foam and greasy film.
  2. After 4 hours, when the meat has completely peeled off the bones, put the onion in the skin and coarsely chopped carrots into the pan with the chicken. We also enrich the broth with allspice and bitter pepper, add celery root, bay leaves and salt. Cook for another hour. In the process, we taste the broth for salt and seasonings.
  3. Turn off the finished broth and leave it on the stove to cool to a temperature comfortable for handling meat by hand. While the broth is cooling, boil the eggs to decorate the finished dish.
  4. From the cooling broth, remove the onion, celery root and carrots. We also remove the broth from the chicken. Strain the broth through a couple of layers of gauze.
  5. Pour gelatin (the contents of the entire bag) into 100 ml of hot water, shake and leave until it swells in water, then dilute with a glass of strained chicken broth. Stir and wait until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Pour the gelatin solution (it is advisable to strain it) into the broth and stir.

  6. Place small pieces of chicken fillet into prepared deep serving containers (plates, containers or silicone molds) (choose the size according to your considerations).
  7. We cut the carrots into round pieces, cut out all kinds of figures from them - flowers and leaves with teeth.
  8. We remove the eggs from the shell and cut them lengthwise into 4-6 pieces.
  9. Peel the garlic and cut into rings (you can put it through a press).
  10. Place the decoration elements on top of the meat, sprinkle with chopped garlic, and decorate with more parsley leaves. Pour the broth with gelatin using a ladle or cup. Cover the forms with jellied meat with food grade polyethylene, lids or plates.
  11. Let the containers with jellied homemade chicken cool down, and after complete cooling, move them to the refrigerator. After at least 5 hours, the chicken broth with gelatin will harden! Now, turning the mold over, place the cold one on a beautiful dish.

* Cook's Advice
If you need to cook jellied meat for a large company, for example, for a family holiday, then you can add a couple of legs or a chicken breast (or 2-3 chicken fillets) to the poultry.

Three secrets of delicious chicken jellied meat

Secret I

To prepare a guaranteed transparent jellied meat, the first broth must be drained. Those. Let the chicken cook until it boils vigorously, let the whites curl into foam, and then pour off this “first” broth with flakes of foam and fat.

We wash the pots, we also carefully rinse the chicken under running water and cook a clear broth.

Chicken broth will easily harden without gelatin if you boil 1 kg of chicken legs together with a chicken carcass.

Chicken feet contain cartilage tissue rich in broth-gelling substances. Also, the decoction of the paws improves the taste of this great chicken dish.
