Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 pound chicken feet
  • 6 cups low sodium chicken stock
  • 4 cloves garlic (smashed)
  • 1 inch fresh ginger (peeled)
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 1 cup raw peanuts
  • 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine (Chinese rice wine)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 5 whole dates
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • green onions (for garnish)

Instruction

  • Use a pair of kitchen shears or a sharp knife to remove the nails from the chicken feet.
  • If the feet still have the yellow skin on them, you can soak them in a vinegar and water mixture for 5-10 minutes, or boil them quickly for about 20 seconds. The skin should peel off easily.
  • Once they are cleaned, boil them in water for 10 minutes then rinse and drain.
  • Add all the ingredients (except the green onion, salt and pepper) to a large pot or Dutch oven and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 2 hours. Stir in the salt and pepper. Adjust to taste if necessary.
  • Serve in bowls garnished with green onions.
