Ingredients
  • 190.4 g chicken breast
  • 0.3779 cup white rice
  • 15 g ginger
  • 20 g scallion
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1.9333 tsp sesame oil
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 4 cup water
Method
  1. 01In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of water to a gentle simmer with half of the minced ginger.
  2. 02Add the raw chicken breast and poach gently over medium-low heat for 12-15 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove chicken and shred once cool enough to handle.
  3. 03Add rinsed white rice to the simmering poaching broth.
  4. 04Cook over low heat for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally to break down the grains until a creamy congee porridge forms.
  5. 05Stir the shredded chicken, soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt into the congee.
  6. 06Ladle into a bowl and top with the sliced scallions and remaining minced ginger.
