    2 tablespoons chicken fat or vegetable oil

    4 cloves garlic, minced

    1-inch piece of ginger, minced

    2 1/2 cups chicken poaching broth

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    For the Sauces:

    2 tablespoons minced ginger

    2 tablespoons minced garlic

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    1/4 cup hot oil

    Chili Sauce:

    To Serve:

    In a large pot, bring water, ginger slices, and scallions to a boil. Lower to a gentle simmer, add the chicken, and cook for 30–35 minutes.

    Turn off the heat, cover, and let the chicken steep for another 20 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath for 10 minutes.

    Remove, pat dry, and chop into serving portions.

    In a pan, heat chicken fat or oil and sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant. Add rinsed rice, stir for 2–3 minutes, then pour in chicken broth and salt. Cook rice until fluffy.

    For sauces: Mix ingredients of each sauce in small bowls. Heat oil for ginger-garlic sauce and pour over the aromatics. Blend chili sauce ingredients in a blender or with immersion blender.
