Vietnamese Chicken Rice (Cơm Gà)

One of the popular dishes in Vietnam that is widely sought after is Chicken rice (Cơm Gà) Chicken rice is made from two main ingredients, which are chicken meat and rice. The rice used for cooking chicken rice is usually Jasmine rice. After washing the rice thoroughly, it is cooked with the chicken broth. Another important ingredient of this delicious dish is the chicken, and the best choice is cage-free or organic young chicken. After boiling the chicken, it is shredded and mixed with onions, fried shallots, salt, and Vietnamese coriander. Finally, the broth is infused with turmeric to give the rice a vibrant yellow color, making it even more appealing. The chicken rice I made today has a savory and spicy flavor, characteristic of Central Vietnamese cuisine.
