Ingredients

• 4 pieces Kampung chicken breast
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 4 pieces Shallots
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric
• 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
• 3 pieces Kaffir lime leaves
• 1 stalk Lemongrass
• 1 inch Ginger
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 200 milliliters Coconut milk
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 500 milliliters Water

Directions

Step 1

Start by roughly chopping the garlic, shallots, and ginger. Trim the lemongrass and bruise it slightly to release its aroma.

Step 2

In a mortar and pestle or a food processor, grind the garlic, shallots, turmeric, coriander powder, ginger, and some black pepper until you get a coarse paste.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the spice paste and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the kaffir lime leaves and lemongrass to the pan. Sauté for another minute to combine the flavors.

Step 5

Pour in the coconut milk and water into the pan, stirring to mix everything evenly. Add salt and the remaining black pepper to taste.

Step 6

Place the chicken breasts in the pan. Ensure the liquid covers at least 3/4 of the chicken. You may add a bit more water if necessary. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 7

Cover the pan and cook the chicken for about 30 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. The chicken should be tender and well-infused with the aromatic broth.

Step 8

After 30 minutes, remove the lid and increase the heat. Allow the liquid to reduce until it thickens, basting the chicken periodically. This should take about 10-15 minutes.

Step 9

Once the liquid has thickened and coated the chicken, remove from heat.

Step 10

Serve the sugar-free Dada Ayam Kampung hot, optionally garnished with freshly chopped herbs like cilantro or parsley for added freshness.
