This recipe is an island favorite and can be eaten as a meal or as an appetizer. I love the bite from the green onions and cilantro. Cut the chopping time by adding the sauce ingredients to a blender or food processor and use deboned chicken cut into pieces if you cannot chop through the bone.
Ingredients:
1 inch gingerroot, peeled and roughly sliced
1 tablespoon garlic, roughly chopped
3 lbs whole chickens, washed and cleaned
6 -8 cups water
1 cup green onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped (chinese parsley)
1/2 cup fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 teaspoon garlic, finely chopped
1/2 cup canola oil
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Boiled Chicken:.
2. Fill a large pot with water and add the whole chicken, sliced ginger root, and chopped garlic.
3. Bring chicken to a boil and reduce heat to medium for a slow, rolling boil for 30 - 40 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and after chicken cools, chop chicken, including bones, to approximately 3 pieces.
5. Cool chicken in refrigerator for 2 hours.
6. Green Onion Sauce:.
7. Combine sauce ingredients, mix well, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
8. When ready to serve, pour cold sauce over cold chicken pieces.
