I’ve just made this for dinner and all I can say is yum, yum and yum. Recently bought an instant pot. I came across your recipe when searching for ideas to cook. Have also been wanting to cook hainan chicken rice. Glad to find your recipe. This will be a regular dish in our house. Hubby loves it too. Such a comforting home cooked meal and easy to prepare too with instant pot. I used frozen chicken and increased the cooking time by 10 min. The chicken was so tender and delicious. The shallot ginger sauce makes the dish to another level. Thank you so much for posting this! Subscribed!
As a Malaysian, Hainanese chicken rice is my favorite and easy to come by. It can be purchased from food stalls easily. With your simple recipe, I will definitely try cooking this dish.
We have a dish like this in Hawaii. We just call it Cold Ginger Chicken. Seems only difference is the chicken is refrigerated. Love how you simplified the recipe to make it in the pressure cooker!
Thx for your video-loved it. I cook rice in my IP in a 1:1 ratio for 3 min. then natural release. And regularly make stock w/ leftover chicken bones in the IP, 1 hour cook w/ natural release.
Love it when you make it so simple! Thank you always. I will also be waiting for the recipe of your steam chicken with golden needle, woodear fungus and mushroom. Always looking forward to your videos!
What's up Maggie! Always love your greeting...and Hainanese chicken paired with tons of ginger scallion sauce. Thank you so much for another wonderful heart warming and traditional family dish. I didn't realize the cooling with the ice bath but now thanks to you, my chicken will be cool, tanned and 'sunscreened' with lots of ginger scallion sauce to a glisson shine! Thank you so much as always for bringing back the fond memories when my mom used to make this dish. 😄🍗 Nothing better than a "Bomb, Diggity, Bomb" at 4:30am to start a Friday and upcoming weekend! Oh yeah! Nothing better than a 'BDB' Hainanese Chicken.... Thanks again Maggie! 😄
I bought a jar of CHNG KEE'S Hainanese Chicken Rice Mix last week, it's very easy, just add 2 Tbsp of this mix to the rice in the rice cooker. The rice comes out exactly like it's from a restaurant.
❤️💜💚🧡Thank you for sharing this delicious instant pot recipe! It amazing all the things we can make in our instant pots. I’m adding this to my list of recipes to try. I make TH-cam cooking videos too and my favorite cooking videos to make are instant pot recipes. I hope we can learn more from each other. ❤️
Hi. Thank you for this easy and simplified recipe. I can’t wait to try it out. Can I use 4 pieces of chicken instead of the three you use here. What other ingredients should I adjust to cook 4 pieces of chicken?
If the additional chicken quarter is small you can try leaving the rest of the ingredients the same. It may be result in more flavorful broth for the rice! If it is a big chicken you can try increasing all the ingredients by 15-20%. Hope that helps!
Looks real yummy. I bet it would taste great with a recently fresh live chicken. For those who don’t have an insta-pot, I request the other method. Besides the char siu, chicken prepared different methods are a staple for me. My favorite is mun chicken in gravy with mushrooms over rice.great job, Maggie
I was using my free range chicken which has meat much tougher than commercial chicken but a lot more tastier. I end up having to pressure cook a second time for ten minutes. Will let you know if it turns out the way that what’s I like.
Hi Maggie, Just found your channel and I have Liked, Subscribed and Shared. 😁 Can I ask if the chicken is served cold with hot rice? I did not see you warm it up again after the ice bath. Thank you.
Great video! I’ve tried cooking the chicken rice in a rice cooker and in an instant pot and I always get burnt rice at the bottom. Using a 3 minute program on high pressure on the IP gives me that dreaded burn notice when it comes to pressure. When cooking in a rice cooker, I find the cooking time is shorter than when I cook regular white rice but when I lift the lid, the rice is still soggy on top and burnt on the bottom. Any tips on how to fix this?
To save clean-up, I'm wondering, after removing the chicken and broth (to strain) could you: 1. Heat the oil to make the ginger sauce, then... 2. Render the fat from the skin, add the onion bits from straining the broth, then COOK the rice in the Instant Pot (usually takes only 5 mins, I hear) while deboning the chicken??
Yogurt? Nobody ever used yogurt for authentic hainanese chicken my guy, you can do you but, I couldn't call that hainanese chicken, what do you dip it with ketchup? 😂 what's next, you gonna go to Italian cuisine channels and tell them you add shrimp paste to spaghetti lol
We have something similar in India and it's ridiculously good.. The sauce is hot seriously hot but the chicken and rice are similar only you NEVER cook the king of rice,basmati, in a rice cooker. Funny how Asia and India have very similar dishes. :-)
Ok Ms Maggie im all about short cuts and i wash chicken but i watch several people cooking from Vietnam Cambodia and Thailand and they always wash meat with salt fish prok chicken duck what does the salt do i try to avoid salt my wife stays on me about it am i messing up or missing something buy just washing it in water ive had this dish before in a place in California it is very good please stay safe and happy see you in the next video
@@rackoflam i always do but i used to drive trucks and i do not trust that its clean i saw to much in shippers and receiving departments im not a trusting person
The Singaporean Hainanese Chicken Rice includes the scallion ginger oil sauce and 2 others: garlic chili sauce and a dark, thick, slightly sweet soya sauce. These 3 sauces are like the holy trinity of chicken rice! If you haven't tried it, please do!
1st step....buy an instapot..🤣🤣 saw a large one on the clearance rack at bed bath and beyond yesterday. I'll put everything on it that it won't be there when I go today. Lol.
It takes 10 minutes to pressure cook and 15 minutes to de pressurise the cooker ?? Dosnt your cooker have a pressure release valve , who wants to wait 15 minutes after cooking to get The food out ??

Hahaha thanks Victor!
So awesome
Yummy..it reminds me of Malaysia every time I see hainanese chicken rice. Are your family from Malaysia?
No they’re not but we love Malaysian food!
Hi,
May I ask, if we dont use the quick cooking option in our rice cooker, would it be okay to cook the rice as in a regular time?
Would you make any changes if you were using a whole chicken instead of the quarters?
I like you speaking Cantonese. 😄👍
Wah lao eh.. Must speak Hokkien not Cantonese when cooking hainanese chicken rice. 😂😂
Great 👍🏽! With some garlic chili sauce to pair with it 😋
Looks absolutely delicious 😋😍👌😊
I'm a Hainanese, many of you have said white chicken is too dry,the fact is many don't know how to cook a moist white chicken（白斩鸡）❗
I bought a jar of CHNG KEE'S
Hainanese Chicken Rice Mix last week, it's very easy, just add 2 Tbsp of this mix to the rice in the rice cooker. The rice comes out exactly like it's from a restaurant.

making this tonight. I have a different model Ipot so I went with the "soup" function under pressure
I hope it turned out well!
Wow would keep half broth for soup topping parsley and green onion
What's your preferred cut of Hainanese chicken? Dark or white??
DARK....white I always find a lil too dry 🤷🏽♀️
Dark is more moist. White is a bit more dry. Tons of ginger scallion sauce goes well with both!
Great recipe Maggie. As always, you NEVER disappoint!
Dark! But that’s why I sous vide. Cuz the white tastes even better!
Dark
Ginger scallion sauce with Bak Chit chicken , classic cantonese dish but yes Hainanese Chicken is also a close similar dish
Where can I find your ginger shallot sauce recipe?
Here you go! Printable recipe is in the description box: th-cam.com/video/DtAtso7WDLQ/w-d-xo.html
Looks great. Gonna have to try it. I’ve alway done mine with my sous vide.
That's good too!

Yes! The chicken is meant to be served cold (or warm). Thanks for subscribing!

Those sound like great time-saving ideas!
I don't have a pressure cooker. Can I use a normal pot?
I love Hainanese chicken! I've been using the instant pot method for a long time due to busy life, but it always comes out tasty. Great weejio! lol
Thank you for watching my weejio!! LOL
That is kinda smart. If ya cook the chicken and rice together the chicken will become tough. I’ll be using this method
Thank you! I use this recipe at least once a month. My kids LOVE the chicken and rice with ginger scallion sauce. I hope you like it!
How long do I cook the chicken thighs? I couldn't find leg quarters at the store
Same time should work
How long do chicken thighs in the instant pot
I would paste up the chicken with yogurt and brown in the oven for colour and texture...10 15 minutes..
Yogurt? Nobody ever used yogurt for authentic hainanese chicken my guy, you can do you but, I couldn't call that hainanese chicken, what do you dip it with ketchup? 😂 what's next, you gonna go to Italian cuisine channels and tell them you add shrimp paste to spaghetti lol
3:35 nice grip haha
Where is the scallion finger sauce link please?
In the description box, but pasting here also th-cam.com/video/DtAtso7WDLQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=831HWuGAYx2jZ2co

@@rackoflam i always do but i used to drive trucks and i do not trust that its clean i saw to much in shippers and receiving departments im not a trusting person
I think you skill Can challenge to make zongzi.
I use the water from washing rice to water plants.

Yup...u need garlic chilli sauce ( squeeze calamansi juice to the chilli sauce)😋
I have tried the holy trinity!! I love the sweet soy sauce and the chili sauce, just never have the time to make all 3! lol. Thanks for sharing!
Can you cook chicken feet please
@@cristypatiag7874 thanks for the suggestion! Will add it to my list 🥰
Your chicken is so shriveled up!
Beauty
you use your clean hand to hold the salt bottle, I do the same🤭
Hahaha you noticed! I'm very particular in the kitchen, especially with cross contamination! Our families should thank us!😁
😋
💜💜💜👍👍👍👍💜💜💜💜👍👍👍👍
🥰
I meant to cook 6 chicken thighs in an instant pot
1st step....buy an instapot..🤣🤣 saw a large one on the clearance rack at bed bath and beyond yesterday. I'll put everything on it that it won't be there when I go today. Lol.
You will not regret it! My SIL just bought one on clearance at Target!!
Those white chicken that too dried are over-cooked.just like any other meat, such as pork.
This is shocking in itself😮
😂 how so!??
It takes 10 minutes to pressure cook and 15 minutes to de pressurise the cooker ?? Dosnt your cooker have a pressure release valve , who wants to wait 15 minutes after cooking to get
The food out ??
Youre so beautiful
