Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
1 Chicken
2 cups Glutinous rice
1/2 Garlic cloves
5 cups Water
10 Chestnuts
Sliced ginseng

Instructions:

  1. Preparation:

    • Clean the chicken thoroughly, removing any inner organs, lower legs, feet, and wingtips, while keeping the body whole. Rinse the chicken well under cold water to ensure it’s clean.
    • Wash the glutinous rice until the water runs clear, and peel the skin from the garlic cloves.
  2. Stuffing the Chicken:

    • Stuff the chicken cavity with the washed glutinous rice, sliced ginseng, and garlic cloves. Seal the cavity shut by sewing it with kitchen twine or using skewers to secure the opening.
  3. Cooking:

    • Place the stuffed chicken in a large pot and add 5 cups of water. Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat.
    • Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer gently for about 30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
    • Add the peeled chestnuts to the pot during the last 10 minutes of cooking to infuse their flavor into the dish.
  4. Seasoning and Serving:

    • Once the chicken is cooked through and the flavors have melded together, season the broth with salt and pepper to taste.
    • Serve the Ginseng Chicken with Glutinous Rice hot, ladling the chicken, rice, and chestnuts into bowls, and spooning some of the flavorful broth over the top.

Enjoy the rich flavors and nourishing qualities of this traditional Korean dish, perfect for sharing with family and friends on any occasion! 🍲
