Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chicken Arroz Caldo (Filipino Chicken Rice Porridge).
Step 1
To start your delicious chicken wing porridge, grab a large pot and warm up some olive oil over medium heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the diced onion, crushed garlic, and sliced ginger.
Step 3
Sauté these aromatic ingredients for about five minutes, letting their delightful scents fill your kitchen.
Step 4
Next, add the chicken wings to the pot and give everything a good stir for about a minute, ensuring the flavors meld together beautifully.
Step 5
If you’re feeling adventurous, now’s the time to stir in some fish sauce for an extra layer of umami.
Step 6
Cover the pot and let it simmer for two minutes, allowing the wings to soak up those wonderful flavors.
Step 7
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 8
Once boiling, gently stir in the glutinous sweet rice, then cover the pot again and let it cook for ten minutes.
Step 9
Remember to stir occasionally to keep the rice from sticking to the bottom—this is where the magic happens! After ten minutes, season your porridge with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting it to your preference.
Step 10
When you’re ready to serve, ladle the warm, comforting soup into bowls and sprinkle with chopped green onions for a fresh touch.
Step 11
For an extra zing, offer lemon slices and additional fish sauce on the side.
Step 12
Enjoy this heartwarming dish that’s perfect for any occasion!.
