Ingredients

  • 1 kg broiler chicken
  • 8 cloves of large garlic
  • 1 tbsp coriander seeds
  • Turmeric
  • Salt
  • Sugar
  • Water

Instructions

  1. Rinse the chicken thoroughly. Optionally, you can rub it with lime juice to remove any unpleasant odor, but if you don’t have lime juice on hand, it’s still fine.

  2. Grind together the garlic, turmeric, and coriander seeds into a smooth paste.

  3. Heat a pan and pour in water. Bring it to a simmer. Add half of the spice paste, adjusting the amount of sugar and salt to your taste. Place the chicken into the pan and continue with the remaining spice paste.

  4. Cover the pan. After 5 minutes, mix the chicken well with the spices. Cover again and let it cook until fully done.

  5. If not frying immediately, you can store the chicken in a covered container. Allow it to cool completely before refrigerating.

  6. Serve the chicken either as it is or proceed to fry it until golden brown.

This dish of Indonesian spiced chicken offers a delightful blend of garlic, turmeric, and coriander, creating a flavorful profile that’s perfect for any occasion. Enjoy it with steamed rice or alongside your favorite vegetables for a complete meal.
