How to remove chemicals from supermarket chicken

Pour the juice of two lemons (or half a glass of white vinegar) into cold water. Let the chicken soak for 20 to 30 minutes.

This natural acid bath helps neutralize odors, remove surface impurities, and firm the flesh.

Rinse one last time
A final rinse in clean water (still in the container) is enough to eliminate any taste of lemon or vinegar.

Bonus option: express pre-cooking
Some families boil the chicken for five minutes before cooking it. The water, which is then discarded, carries away some of the residue and any traces of processing.
