Best Hainan Chicken to make at Home in 30min

Hainan chicken rice is a hearty dinner dish for the whole family. With this pack from Prima Taste (which you can find in any Asian grocer), you can easily feed your entire family a restaurant quality meal. All the cooking can be done in one pot + the rice cooker. It is a perfect dish for a busy weeknight. While this food is not exactly from my own heritage, my friend with family heritage from Malaysia also recommends it.

All you need apart from this beautifully packed box, are:

• chicken

• rice

• Greens

  I use organic drumsticks because they are good value and easy to eat. You can remove skin if you want it super lean.

  The green can be anything you like to blanch in chicken stock, e.g bok choy and wombok. Slide some Cucumber, and a few sprigs of coriander for garnish.

Once you open the pack, there are 6 packets.

Just add 2 of the big packs to the chicken+water and rice respectively, as per packet instruction (both written and video).

If you want to keep overall cooking time to under 30min, use WATER not Chicken stock, so you can have chicken and rice cooking in parrallel.

Blanch the vege in chicken stock briefly just enough to cook it.

Open the remaining packets to use as dipping sauces:

• sesame + soy sauce

• Sweet soy sauce

• Ginger and shallot sauce

• Chilli sauce

The chicken stock is the soup.

Enjoy!
