Instructions

  1. 1 Place chicken breasts in a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. Drain and cool until easily handled.
  2. 2 Pour rice into a strainer. Rinse with cold water and drain. Repeat once more.
  3. 3 Heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add 1/2 cup sliced ginger and 2 tablespoons crushed garlic; sauté until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in rice; reduce heat to medium. Season with 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook and stir until rice turns white, adding water to prevent it from burning, about 10 minutes.
  4. 4 Remove rice from heat; add pandan leaves. Transfer to a rice cooker. Pour in chicken stock. Seal and select setting according to manufacturer's instructions; cook until tender. Fluff lightly with a rice paddle.
  5. 5 Combine 1 cup chopped ginger, 1/2 cup chopped garlic, chili peppers, 6 tablespoons sugar, dark soy sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, vinegar, soybean paste, cilantro, chicken bouillon granules, and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender; blend until smooth.
  6. 6 Pour ginger sauce into a pot over medium heat; simmer for 5 minutes.
  7. 7 Slice chicken; serve over rice with sauce.
