Jasmine rice with chicken and ginger

March 22, 2021

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Jasmine rice with chicken and ginger. A perfect meal where juicy chicken bites meet the exotic jasmine rice from Thailand.

The chicken is juicy due to the marinade based on soy sauce. While the fresh ginger adds to the dish the needed freshenes  that perfectly matches with the exotic jasmine rice. Can you resist to this delicious journey?

What type of rice should I use?

In this recipe I used Jasmine rice from the brand Eutopia. This particular rice accompanies perfectly oriental, spicy and exotic dishes!

Jasmine rice is a white, long-grain rice. It is grown on the plateaus of Thailand, in specially configured rice fields (tiered terraces). It gets its spectacular natural aroma from the soil of the regions where it is grown. That is why it is named after jasmine.

Alternatively you can use another long fruit rice, such as basmati.

Is it safe to use the marinade?

As you will see in the instructions of the recipe, after the chicken is cooked, we remove it from the heat and finally add the marinade to the pan. The marinade will be cooked in the pan over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until thickened. So, as long as it has been cooked there is no risk.

Can I add ground ginger instead of fresh?

If you do not have fresh ginger you can replace it with ground. The result will not be exactly the same, but there will still be the spark of ginger in the taste. For each tablespoon of freshly grated ginger, add 1/4 teaspoon of ground.
