Ingredients
- 500 grams boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1500 ml water
- 200 grams jasmine rice
- 2 pieces chicken bouillon cubes
- 250 ml unsweetened soy milk
- 20 grams ginger
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 piece shredded cucumber
- 50 grams fried shallots
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 30 grams protein powder (unflavored)
- 2 stalks spring onions
- 1 tablespoon sambal oelek (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Place the chicken breast in a large pot and add 1500 ml of water. Bring to a boil and let the chicken cook for about 15-20 minutes or until fully cooked.
Step 2
Remove the chicken breast from the pot and let it cool. Once cooled, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3
While the chicken is cooling, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Step 4
Add the rinsed rice to the same pot with the chicken broth, and drop in the chicken bouillon cubes. Slice the ginger into thin pieces and add to the pot.
Step 5
Simmer the mixture over low heat, occasionally stirring to prevent sticking, for about 30-40 minutes until the rice breaks down into a porridge consistency.
Step 6
Add the unsweetened soy milk and protein powder to the porridge, stirring well to combine. Let it cook for an additional 5 minutes, then season with salt to taste.
Step 7
Serve the porridge in bowls, topping with shredded chicken, fried shallots, shredded cucumber, and chopped spring onions.
Step 8
Drizzle with soy sauce and sambal oelek for added flavor if desired.
