Chicken Rice Meltdown
why it is so good... and so sinful :)
- It's healthy... really? It has protein, carbohydrates, vegetables and oil.
- It's finger licking good... even better than KFC.
- Rice is fluffy, fragrant and leaves you hungry for more... delicious morsels that lingers in your mouth long after...
- Chicken. Tender and succulent. Fatty skin can only be a bonus - fragrance and yumminess times ten!

Chicken Rice Meltdown
why it is so sinful and soooo good...
Where To Get A Mouthful Of This Delicious Fare In Singapore
You can find thousands of stalls all over Singapore that sells Chicken rice. From stalls in hawker centers to high class hotels in Orchard road, with prices ranging from S$1 to a whopping S$26, we have them all.
Here are my favorite places :
Tiong Bahru Food Center
There are several parts to this famous dish that is so well loved by Singaporeans
The Chicken
There are several types of chicken available.
Roasted
Hainanese Steamed "White" Chicken
Deep Fried
Most people prefer the tender meat of the Hainanese Steamed Chicken. How they cook the chicken is to steam the chicken after seasoning the chicken with simple salt water.
Personally I prefer roast chicken with the fragrant skin.
The Rice
Rice as you know is the staple food for Asians. The chicken rice served is no plain ordinary white rice. When you take a first mouthful of the fragrant chicken rice, you will be surprised by the yummy fluffy and yet tasty flavored rice. How they cook the rice is to first fry plenty of chopped shallots, garlic, pandan leaves until fragrant. Then add in the raw rice grain with the chicken oil from cooking the chicken and chicken stock to cook the rice.
The rice is one of the most important factor in a plate of good chicken rice. It is as important as the chicken itself!
Chilli Sauce
Some people says that this is the crux of the entire chicken rice. Whether you make it or break it, it is the chilli sauce. The chilli sauce is unlike your ordinary chilli sauce. It has a bite to it that is both savoury and tangy.
