Com Ga

Com Ga is a popular Vietnamese dish consisting of flavorful poached chicken served with fragrant rice and a side of dipping sauce.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the whole chicken, ginger slices, and half of the minced garlic. Cook for about 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool. Once cooled, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a separate pot, rinse the jasmine rice until the water runs clear. Drain the rice and add it to the pot with chicken broth. Cook the rice according to the package instructions.
In a small bowl, mix together the remaining minced garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and lime juice to make the dipping sauce.
To serve, place a portion of cooked rice on a plate, top with shredded chicken, and garnish with cucumber slices, chopped cilantro, and scallions. Serve with the dipping sauce on the side.
