How To Make hainanese style chicken and rice
-
1Place water in a large pot. Add the salt. Bring to a boil. Rinse the chicken and then holding by the legs, dip the chicken in the boiling water for 5 seconds and then pull it out. Do this two more times to tighten the skin.
-
2Drop the chicken in the water and add the scallions, garlic, ginger and turmeric powder. Bring the heat to a simmer and simmer 45 minutes.
-
3Place the rice in a rice cooker and set aside.
-
4Prepare the sauces. For the ginger garlic, mix the ingredients together in a heat proof dish. Pour the hot oil over top and let it sizzle.
-
5For the chili sauce, put all the ingredients together in a bowl and add the hot chicken stock right out of the pot. Once the chilies are soft, put through a food processor.
-
6Once the chicken is cooked, place in an ice bath for 10 minutes. Remove and brush with sesame oil.
-
7Put 3 cups of the chicken stock through a fine mesh strainer into the rice cooker with the rice. Cook according to the cooker directions.
-
8Debone the chicken and serve with the rice and sauces.
