Khao Man Kai
Khao Man Kai is a popular Thai dish that consists of steamed chicken served with fragrant rice cooked in chicken broth. It is often accompanied by a side of clear soup and a spicy dipping sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken about 3-4 pounds
- 2 cups jasmine rice
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 thumb-sized ginger sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 cucumber sliced
- 4 sprigs cilantro
- 4 green onions chopped
- Chili dipping sauce (optional)
Instructions
- Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Rub the chicken with a little salt and set aside.
- In a large pot, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the chicken, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and oyster sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 45-60 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the broth and let it cool slightly. Save the broth for cooking the rice.
- Wash the jasmine rice until the water runs clear. In a rice cooker or pot, add the rice and enough of the chicken broth to cook the rice. Cook the rice according to the rice cooker instructions or until fluffy and cooked.
- Once the chicken has cooled slightly, chop it into serving pieces.
- To serve, place a portion of rice on each plate, top with the chicken pieces, and garnish with cucumber slices, cilantro, and green onions.
- Drizzle some sesame oil over the chicken and serve with chili dipping sauce on the side.
- Enjoy!
