chicken rice

Hainanese comfort food

Chicken rice is a Southeast Asian dish of poached or roasted chicken served over rice cooked in chicken broth, typically accompanied by chili sauce and cucumber slices.

The dish is particularly associated with Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand, where it's considered a national comfort food.

We grabbed chicken rice from the hawker center for lunch.
