Hainanese Chicken Rice

The crown jewel of Southeast Asian street food. Perfectly poached chicken with aromatic, oil-glittered rice.

This chili sauce is the soul of any good Hainanese Chicken Rice. It’s bright, spicy, and the lime juice provides that essential tang that cuts through the richness of the chicken skin and oily rice.
