I just had chicken rice for lunch today. Don't mind to have another round ;D
I like chicken rice's rice...so I can cook this anytime even without chicken as the side! Yay!
Flavourful and different rice, yumm!
Ginger and garlic in that rice must be amazing! Looks and sounds so delicious!
Yum! i love the addition of ginger, garlic and pandan leaves. I miss pandan leaves-fresh for sure! we can only get frozen one!! My grandma sometimes also put a cube of chicken stock in the rice which works good too!
yummy yummy... :)
I love the smell of chicken rice filling my house when cooking it. I always have to cook extra rice when it is chicken rice.
Serving such fragrant rice with steamed chicken is most welcomed; I'd be equally happy with a dish of veggie or fish : ).
I always cheat by using the chicken rice paste to make the rice but your recipe looks really doable! After a few weeks abroad, I'm really starting to crave good chicken rice!
Hey, I prefer the Fried Chicken :) It looks really yummy!
Oh, I've just posted an article on Amazing Kitchen Tips (Part I). Thought I share it with u :)
I will always choose steamed chicken over fried. I can eat chicken rice with chilli sauce and be very satisfied.
the seasoning that you added to this rice sounds awesome!
YUM! this looks so amazing.
Yum, my mouth is watering just thinking about this rice!
Beautiful photo. I've never heard of pandan! Is it similar to any (more conventional) herb?
Looking at this recipe makes me hungry...! I love chicken rice and your photography makes the dish looks even better!
looks good

Would love to try this recipe the coming weekend. We have never been able to steam fragrant rice using rice cooker. We use the old-time steamer instead. Beautiful pictures, and I love all your recipes!
