Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the cooked rice with 2 cups of water or light chicken stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice has broken down into a creamy, porridge-like consistency.
While the congee simmers, heat 1g of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shredded chicken breast and half the julienned ginger, sautéing until the chicken is warmed through and fragrant.
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil and the kale. Sauté until the kale is wilted and crispy at the edges. Season with a pinch of sea salt.
Stir the remaining fresh ginger into the congee just before serving to maintain its bright, spicy bite.
To plate, ladle the creamy congee into a deep bowl. Top with the warm shredded chicken and the crispy kale. Drizzle with a touch of honey to balance the savory-spicy profile and garnish with fresh scallions if desired.
