CHICKEN ARROZ CALDO (CHICKEN RICE PORRIDGE)

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir the onion, garlic, and ginger in the hot oil until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken wings; cook and stir together for 1 minute. Stir the fish sauce into the pot, cover, and cook another 2 minutes.
• Pour the chicken broth into the pot. Add the sweet rice and stir. Bring the mixture to a boil; cover and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to assure the rice is not sticking to the bottom of the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the green onion, and serve with lemon slices and additional fish sauce, if desired.

• For the chicken arroz caldo: Place a frying pan with the olive oil on the stove and bring to a medium-hot temperature.
• Cook the chicken in the pan for 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove to a cutting board. Chop.
• Place the Jasmine Rice in large pan, then add the scallions, carrots and 4 cups of the chicken stock.
• Heat the rice mixture, slowly adding the remaining 1 to 2 cups chicken stock and stirring with a spoon until it has a creamy consistency. Stir in the fish sauce.
• Bring a small pot of water to a strong simmer, then add the eggs and poach for 2 1/2 minutes.
• To assemble the dish: Place the creamy rice in 4 bowls, then place a chicken breast on each. Add the chiles to the creamy chicken rice. Top each bowl with a poached egg, then garnish with the cilantro.
• Heat the olive oil with the garlic and ginger in a pot until fragrant, 5 to 6 minutes. Swirl the pot so the garlic and ginger cook equally, then add the stock and rice.

ARROZ CALDO (CHICKEN RICE PORRIDGE)

Steps:

• Place both of the rices in a bowl, cover with cold water and set aside to soak. Place the chicken in a large saucepan or stockpot and cover with 2.5 litres (85 fl oz / 10 cups) water. Bring to the boil over medium heat, skimming any scum from the surface, then reduce the heat to low-medium and simmer for 40 minutes, or until the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pierced with a knife. Remove the chicken from the stock and set aside to cool slightly; reserve the stock.
• Put the vegetable oil and sliced garlic in a large saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously for 5 minutes, or until the garlic is golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel. Return the saucepan to the heat, add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring until soft. Add the chopped garlic and ginger and stir for a further 2 minutes, or until fragrant.
• Drain the rice, add to the pan with the onion and stir for 2 minutes, or until the rice grains are well coated. Add the fish sauce and 2 litres (68 fl oz / 8 cups) of the stock, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium and cook for 20 minutes, or until the rice is very soft and starting to break up, and the mixture has thickened. Thin with a little extra stock to a porridge-like consistency, then season with salt flakes.
• Shred the chicken, discarding the skin and bones. Divide three-quarters of the chicken among serving bowls, then ladle over the rice mixture. Top with the remaining chicken, then scatter with the fried garlic and spring onion. Serve with hardboiled eggs, sesame oil, if using, and kalamansi.
