Steps to make Hainanese Chicken Bulgur (cracked wheat / groats / trigo):
- Prepare your Hainanese Chicken Broth: boil onions, leeks, peppercorns, garlic, ginger and chicken broth cube in a pot. For a quick cook, boil at least 30 mins.
- Then add in your salt-brined chicken pieces, smother with sesame oil and a bit more salt first. Discard the brine. Bring the pot to a boil again for 5 minutes. Turn to the other side and let it cook for another 5 minutes before turning off the heat. (Note: this applies to thawed or fresh chicken only. It takes longer for frozen chicken).
- Leave the chicken in the pot for 30 minutes to cook off in the residual heat.
- Place the chicken in a container with a bit of broth and cover so it doesn't dry out while you are cooking the bulgur. Set aside.
- Strain the broth and set aside.
- How to cook the Bulgur: toast in oil in a pan for a couple of minutes.
- Then pour in your Hainanese broth. The ratio is 1:2. So for 1/2c Bulgur, I added 1 cup of broth. Constantly stir in low heat until it is absorbed.
- Remove from heat and rest for at least 15 minutes.
- Transfer to a serving plate and pair with your Hainanese Chicken. I mixed in the cooked onions, garlic and a couple ginger slices from the broth. Left the peppercorns off of course haha. Enjoy!
