Instructions
  1. Give your chicken a nice exfoliating rub with the sea salt until skin is smooth and shiny. Wash off salt and marinate with soy sauce. Chill in fridge for 3 hours.
  2. Fill a large pot with two litres of water. Throw in the salt, ginger slices and spring onions. Put chicken breast side down and cook for 20 minutes on high heat.
  3. Turn off the heat and let the chicken simmer for another 20 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile cook the rice in a rice cooker. Once the rice is cooked, put the Hainanese Chicken paste into the rice and stir with the chicken broth.
  5. Check to see if the chicken is cooked entirely. If there is still blood, turn the heat back on and cook for another 10 minutes. Put the chicken in a bowl filled with ice and water.
  6. Serve with rice and sweet chili sauce. Enjoy!
