Vicky's Chicken Rice

Remembering those days back in UK, my dear housemate taught us how to cook chicken rice as most of us craving for it. Lately, she recalled my memory again on those days and here's her recipe. I decided to name this chicken rice after her as this simple and healthy cooking taste fairly good!

Here's the simple step...

1. Prepare some sliced ginger, garlic (smashed), and chicken ( I prefer the drumstick)

2. Prepare a pot of water to make chicken stock. Cooked the ginger, garlic and chicken for 40 mins.

3. Prepare to cook rice. Use some of the boiled chicken stock, ginger and garlic for cooking the rice. Don't add in the chicken (which I did) as it will overcook the chicken. After boiling the chicken stock, dish out the chicken and rub them with some table salt. Not too much.

4. Add in some salt and butter (optional) into the pot of rice.
5. While waiting for the rice to cook, prepare the sauce for the chicken. Add few dashes of sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of soya sauce (adjust according to your taste), a dash of pepper and some chicken stock.

6. Voila! Vicky's chicken rice and don't forget to garnish with sliced cucumber. Use the rest of the chicken stock as soup. Add in some spring onion or chinese parsley. Sorry, chicken looks little as we had finish half of the portion. Almost forgot to take pictures!
