Silca makes a pretty good degreaser that’s one step and is pretty effective. It won’t work as good if the chain is caked with crap and well used, but it’s quite robust and will certainly do a good job with a newer chain. Anything more is overkill. It takes like 15 minutes too, start to finish, and if you do a good enough job you will only need to wash with hot water in the future.
