Instructions

1

Poach the chicken breast in a pot of gently simmering water infused with smashed ginger and cilantro roots until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.

Steam the broccoli until vibrant green and tender-crisp.

Prepare the dipping sauce by whisking together the fermented soybean paste, palm sugar, a splash of lime juice, and finely minced bird's eye chili until smooth and balanced between salty, sweet, and spicy.

4

Fluff the cooked long-grain rice and arrange it in a deep bowl. Top with the sliced chicken breast and steamed broccoli.

5

Drizzle the sesame oil over the chicken and serve the dipping sauce on the side. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves for a bright, herbaceous finish.
