How to prepare Grilled Chicken Broken Rice

• 1

  Prepare the chicken

  After buying, wash the chicken thighs thoroughly. Then use a sharp knife to clean the chicken bones.

  If you find the chicken meat too thick after deboning, you can slice it thinner, ensuring the piece of meat is only about 1/2 finger joint thick.

  To make the chicken meat absorb the seasoning better, after deboning, use the flat side of the knife to hit the piece of meat 3 – 4 times.

  How to clean and eliminate the smell of chicken:

  • To clean and remove the smell of chicken, you must first remove the feathers.
  • Soak the chicken with salt, pepper, crushed ginger, and a little white wine for about 30 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
  • If you’re short on time, you can wash the chicken with vinegar, alcohol, or lemon to eliminate the smell.

  Frying Eggs

  Crack 2 eggs into a bowl, add a little finely chopped green onion, 1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper, 1/2 tablespoon of fish sauce, 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate. Stir well to combine the seasonings and eggs.

  Evenly coat the pan with 1 tablespoon of cooking oil, and heat the oil. Then pour the egg mixture in, slowly tilting the pan to spread the eggs out thinly. Fry the eggs over medium heat for about 1 minute.

  Grilling Chicken

  Place the chicken on the grill, set the charcoal fire to medium, and grill for about 30 – 40 minutes until the chicken is evenly golden on both sides.

  During the grilling process, when you see the chicken is evenly golden on both sides, brush the remaining sauce on, evenly coating both sides of the meat. Grill until the sauce is dry, then take it out and place it on a plate.

  Tip: If you do not have a charcoal grill, you can grill the chicken using an oven, an air fryer, or an electric grill for 30 minutes at a temperature of 200 degrees Celsius. Then take it out, brush the sauce on and grill for another 5 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.
