Hainanese Chicken

 

Weekend Special by Hawker M

 

Ingredients

2 organic chicken leg quarters

few slices of ginger

one stalk of green onion

3 cloves garlic

one pot of water

 

Method

1. Bring one pot of water to a boil.
2. Add ginger, green onion and garlic cloves.
3. Dip the chicken leg quarter into the boiling water 3 times.
4. Do the same for the other leg quarter. 
5. Place both leg quarters into the pot.
6. Cover and bring to a boil again.
7. Once the water is boiling, cover and continue to let it boil for 3 minutes.
8. Turn off heat.  I am using ceramic stove so I am letting the residual heat cook the chicken meat.
9. Remove chicken from pot after 45 minutes.
10. Chop into pieces and enjoy the tender and moist chicken!
