Method

For the Chicken:

  1. Wash the chicken thoroughly and remove any excess fat. Pat dry with a paper towel.
  2. In a large pot, add water, garlic, ginger, spring onions, pandan leaves, and salt. Bring to a boil.
  3. Add the chicken to the pot, breast-side down. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the chicken sit in the pot for another 20 minutes.
  4. Remove the chicken from the pot and place it in a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes. This will stop the cooking process and make the skin firm.
  5. Remove the chicken from the ice water and pat it dry. Brush the chicken with sesame oil and soy sauce. Let it cool for 10 minutes before cutting into bite-sized pieces.

For the Rice:

  1. In a rice cooker, add the washed rice, garlic, ginger, pandan leaves, salt, and chicken stock. Stir well.
  2. Cook the rice according to the rice cooker's instructions.
  3. Once the rice is cooked, let it sit for 10 minutes before fluffing it with a fork.

For the Chili Sauce:

  1. In a blender, add the red chilies, garlic, ginger, vinegar, sugar, and salt. Blend until smooth.
  2. Transfer the chili sauce to a small dipping bowl.

Notes

  • The chicken can be served hot or cold.
  • The chicken can be prepared a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
