Hey there, breakfast lovers! _sips coffee_
Let me share with you my absolute favorite Chinese breakfast recipe that’ll make you ditch your boring cereal forever – Congee with Century Egg and Tender Chicken! Trust me, this silky-smooth rice porridge is pure comfort in a bowl, and it’s exactly what I crave on those mornings when I need something warm and cozy.
Y’all, I discovered this recipe during my trip to Hong Kong, and I’ve been obsessed ever since! The best part? It’s actually super easy to make, even if you’re still half-asleep (we’ve all been there, right? 😉).
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 1 cup jasmine rice
– 8 cups chicken broth
– 2 century eggs (don’t be scared, they’re amazing!)
– 1 chicken breast
– Ginger, sliced
– Green onions, chopped
– White pepper
– Soy sauce
– Crispy fried shallots
Now, let me walk you through this, bestie:
1. Rinse that rice until the water runs clear (nobody wants cloudy congee!)
2. Pop the rice and chicken broth in a large pot
3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally (perfect time to scroll through TikTok, just saying 💁♀️)
4. Add your chicken breast and ginger slices
5. Cook for another 20 minutes until the chicken is done
