Directions:

Step 1:

  • Place the chicken breasts, chicken broth, rice, coconut milk, garlic, ginger, sugar, salt, and whole scallions into a slow cooker. Stir to combine.

Step 2:

  • Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 5 hours, until the chicken is tender and falls off the bone, and the rice has turned into a porridge-like consistency.

Step 3:

  • Discard the ginger and whole scallions. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and shred the meat. Discard the skin and bones. Stir the shredded chicken back into the rice mixture.

Step 4:

  • Serve the congee topped with sliced scallions, cilantro, roasted peanuts, toasted coconut, and sriracha. Add lime wedges on the side.

TIP
  • For extra richness, stir in a little more coconut milk before serving.
  • You can add toppings like a fried egg or sliced avocado for added texture and flavor.
