This steamed chicken is delicious and popular in Southeast Asian countries, where it’s typically served with chicken rice. We love it so much. It is very easy to make.
Ingredients
- 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 cup salt
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 5 tablespoons light soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 sprigs fresh cilantro
Directions
Step 1
Place chicken and salt in a bowl. Evenly rub salt into chicken. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Step 2
Place a steamer basket into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Rinse chicken and place into the basket. Bring water to a boil; cover and steam chicken until juices run clear, about 30 minutes.
Step 3
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion; cook until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Mix in garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in soy sauce and sesame oil, then remove from heat.
Step 4
Spoon sauce over chicken and garnish with cilantro to serve.
