👨🍳 步骤
- 1
Prepare the glutinous rice: After soaking the glutinous rice for at least 8 hours or overnight, drain it thoroughly. Rinse the rice one last time under cold running water. Spread the drained rice evenly in a steamer basket lined with cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel. Ensure there's space for steam to circulate. Steam over high heat for 30-40 minutes, or until the rice is tender, translucent, and cooked through. You should be able to easily mash a grain between your fingers. If using an electric rice cooker, follow the manufacturer's instructions for steaming sticky rice.

Poach the chicken: While the rice is steaming, place the chicken pieces in a saucepan. Add 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface. Poach the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 74°C (165°F). Remove the chicken from the poaching liquid and let it cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces using two forks or your fingers.

Assemble the Xôi Gà: In a large bowl, gently toss the steamed glutinous rice with the shallot oil. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the rice gummy. Add about half of the shredded chicken and gently mix it in. Transfer the seasoned rice and chicken mixture to serving bowls or a platter.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Garnish and serve: Top each serving generously with the remaining shredded chicken and a good amount of crispy fried shallots. Garnish with fresh herbs. Serve immediately with Nuoc mam gung (Vietnamese ginger fish sauce dip) on the side for dipping.
