Filipino Chicken Arroz Caldo
A savory Filipino rice porridge with glutinous rice and chicken, simmered with ginger and broth, and served with egg, browned garlic, and scallion. Makes 4 servings.
Arroz caldo is a Filipino preparation of rice cooked in broth with chicken. The sources document versions made with glutinous rice as well as blends of rice; this recipe follows the glutinous-rice version with ginger and finishes with egg, garlic, and scallion.
Method
- 01
Boil the eggs
Put the eggs in a saucepan of water and boil them for 12–13 minutes. Peel and halve them.
13 min - 02
Brown the garlic and soften the aromatics
Heat the oil in a pot. Brown some of the garlic and set it aside for the garnish. Add the remaining garlic, the onion, and the ginger; sauté until the onion softens.
- 03
Brown the chicken
Add the chicken to the pot and brown it on the outside, turning the pieces so they brown evenly.
- 04
Add the rice and broth
Add the rinsed glutinous rice and stir to combine it with the chicken and aromatics. Pour in the chicken broth and fish sauce; bring to a boil, then lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
- 05
Cook until the rice is very soft
Simmer gently for about 50 minutes, stirring from time to time so the rice does not stick. Squeeze in the lemon at the end and stir it into the arroz caldo.
50 min - 06
Serve with the garnishes
Divide the arroz caldo among bowls. Add the boiled eggs, reserved browned garlic, and chopped scallion.
