Sambel Ayam Suwir
A Delightful Indonesian Spicy Shredded Chicken Dish
Ingredients:
- 300 grams of boiled chicken (shredded)
- 3 cloves garlic
- 3 shallots
- 50 grams of large red chili peppers
- 7 small red chilies (bird’s eye chilies)
- 1 cm ginger
- Salt, sugar, and seasoning to taste
Instructions:
-
Begin by shredding the boiled chicken into small, bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
-
In a pot, add all ingredients except the ginger. This includes garlic, shallots, large red chili peppers, and small red chilies. Cook them over medium heat until they become soft and fragrant.
-
Transfer the cooked ingredients into a blender, adding the ginger. Blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth, slightly textured consistency.
-
Heat a small amount of oil in a pan over medium heat. Pour the blended chili paste into the pan and fry briefly until the oil begins to separate from the paste.
-
Season the paste with salt, sugar, and seasoning to taste. Stir well to combine.
-
Add the shredded chicken to the pan, stirring thoroughly to ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the sambel. Continue to cook for a few more minutes until the flavors meld together and the chicken absorbs the sambel.
-
Once the sambel has fully absorbed into the chicken and the flavors are well combined, remove from heat.
-
Serve the sambel ayam suwir hot, garnished as desired. Enjoy this flavorful Indonesian classic with steamed rice or as a side dish!
