Instructions to make Chicken Pilaf | 鸡肉抓饭:
- Prepare the salad. - - In a skillet over medium heat, add onion and saute until translucent. - - Add in garlic and saute until aromatic. - - Remove from heat and transfer into a large bowl. - - I do this to take off the raw onion and garlic taste. You can skip if you prefer a more pungent flavor. - - Toss in the rest of the ingredients and some more olive oil until well combined. - - Keep chilled in the fridge until ready to use.
- Prepare the chicken. - - Add cumin, peppercorns and chilies in a skillet. - - Turn the heat up to medium and toast until aromatic. - - Transfer into a spice grinder and blitz until powder forms. - - Transfer chicken thigh into a large bowl. - - Add in the spice blend and the rest of the ingredients.
- Mix until the chicken is well coated with the rub. - - Cover with cling film and marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hrs. - - Transfer rice into a large bowl. - - Wash and drain the rice until the water is clear, about 5 times. - - Submerge the rice with water and set aside for 1 hr.
- After the chicken has marinated, prepare the pilaf. - - In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. - - Once the oil is heated up, add in the chicken. - - Sear until the bottom is browned. - - Flip and continue cooking for 2 to 3 mins. - - Remove from heat, leaving the oil in the skillet, and transfer onto a plate. Set aside.
- In the same skillet over medium-high, add the onion. - - Season with salt and sugar. - - Deglaze and saute until the onion is caramelized. - - Add in the garlic and saute until aromatic. - - Add in carrots and chicken with its juice. Saute until well combined. - - If your carrots come along with their stems and leaves, save these for presentation. This is optional. - - Add in 354g of chicken stock.
- Deglaze and stir to combine well. - - Turn the heat down to low and bring it up to a simmer. - - Cover and cook for 15 to 20 mins or until the liquid has reduced to 1/2. - - If you are using lamb or beef, cook it longer until the meat is tender. - - Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
- Add in the remaining 118g of chicken stock. - - Stir to combine well. - - Drain the rice and transfer it over the top. - - Do not pack the rice as it will sink to the bottom of the skillet and will burn during the cooking process. Rather, slowly coax the rice to the sides with the back of a spatula for an even layer.
- Using a wooden chopstick, poke holes in the rice. This is to allow even cooking. - - Still on low heat, cover and cook for 10 mins. - - The rice will soak up all the liquid. - - Gently, fold the top layer of rice to allow even cooking. - - Again, poke holes with a wooden chopstick. - - Cover and cook for another 6 mins or until the rice is cooked fully. - - Do not be tempted to add any more liquid as it will cause the rice to be marshy.
- Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt. Add in the raisins and give it a final stir. - - Remove from heat and serve immediately with the salad. - - I used the carrot stem as part of the presentation. - - Dig in with your clean hands.
- If you are using lamb or beef, switch out the chicken stock for lamb or beef stock accordingly. - - You can use any type of long-grain rice, I am using Jasmine.
