Add the chicken strips, ensuring they're well coated.

Skewering the chicken before cooking helps maintain its shape and ensures even cooking.

Cook Porridge

Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, stirring occasionally.

Keep an eye on the porridge to prevent burning.

Cooking Process


1

Grilling the Satay

Preheat a grill or grill pan on medium-high heat. Thread marinated chicken onto skewers and grill until cooked through, about 8 minutes, turning occasionally.

Preparing the Porridge

Simmer the porridge, stirring occasionally until the rice is tender and thickened, about 40 minutes.

3

Assembling the Dish

Spoon the porridge into bowls, top with grilled chicken satay, garnish, and drizzle with sauces.
