I usually buy Sadia Chicken from Sheng Siong supermarket as it is smaller and feeds perfectly for my family of 4.

For this recipe, I prefer using red onion but if you’re left with the other kind, I guess it won’t make much of a difference. You’re hungry aren’t you?

Old ginger gives off a stronger taste but young ginger will do the work too. Just add in more. By more, I meant by 2cm and not double the amount ok?

Chicken cube usually using Knorr brand.

While defrosting your chicken, prepare all the other ingredients.

Like taking out your pot and heating it in medium to low heat. As for me, I personally love to use rice cooker to cook this dish.

Then start grinding / blending, peeling and cutting all the other ingredients.
Start frying the onions, garlic and ginger in oil (about 5 table spoon) on medium heat.


Once you smell the fragrance filling up the kitchen, place in the chicken together with the chicken cube. Let the chicken be ¾ cook.

Pour in water roughly a little more till it covers the chicken and add a bit of salt and white pepper. Leave it and let it boil away. (That’s why I like using rice cooker for this.)

While waiting to boil, clean your kitchen. Multi task ok? Take a quick shower or do your laundry.

Once boil, remove 3 cups of broth/soup in another bowl. (this is for the following recipe)

Add in potatoes and carrots till soften and remove from heat.

Garnish with some celery and fried shallots for the extra oomph! And it is ready to eat!

What's cooking?

Ever since my friend cooked for me chicken rice, I realize how easy it is to cook this meal. Really fell in love with this meal as I just have to prepare a main dish (chicken broth / chicken soup) to get 3 dishes. Interesting right?

Estimated time taken is about 30 - 45 mins depending on how fast your broth boils!

This recipe and how to cook will be updated tomorrow! Let me share my way of cooking with the working mummy or anybody who would love to prepare home cooked meals but is also multi-tasking with other house chores.

Step by step chicken rice recipe will be updated from the time you defrost your chicken.

Hear from me soon!
