Cooking Lab - Salt-Baked Chicken w XO Fried Rice (鹽焗雞配XO蛋炒飯)

A simple meal using the leftover chicken. Tonight I am using the salt-baked chicken (鹽焗雞 - readily available from any Asian BBQ shop) and its accompanied green-shallot oil. You can easily substitute it with BBQ Chicken with Gravy.

6. Shred the salt-baked chicken into thin slices and arrange them on top of the XO fried rice.

7. Garnish with the complementary green shallot oil.

(This got to be the best green-shallot oil I've tasted - Normally I just throw them away, as the salt-baked chicken is already tasty enough. This home-made dipping oil is salty and full of with shallot fragrant with a hint of ginger sweetness.It adds texture and depth to the beautiful salted chicken. Totally a  beautiful combination)

 

8. Season with a dash of the Japanese chili powder mix.

Totally delicious! We all went for a second serving  :D
