1. Place the whole chicken in a large pot or Dutch oven and cover it with salted water. Stop cooking as soon as the chicken is cooked.
2. Cut the chicken: leave the thighs and wings whole and cut the rest into medium-sized pieces. Strain the water.
3. Return the chicken to the skimmed water with all the remaining ingredients. Simmer until the rice is well cooked.
Notes & Suggestions
For the spices, it is best to use:
- 1 piece of raw cinnamon bark (rather than a cinnamon stick)
- 1 piece of dried black pepper root (about 2 cm)
- 1 piece of dried ginger root (about 2 cm)
You are likely to not find these spices in a supermarket. You will need to go to oriental or Asian grocery stores.
