one filipino dish a week

The change of weather got to me recently and I was feeling under the weather last week. The Girl, being the best girlfriend that she is, made me some pospas. Pospas is a rice porridge and very much a comfort food. It’s something that you get to eat when you’re sick. And that is the majority of the times that I’ve eaten pospas is when I’m sick or if it’s cold and rainy outside. But I would eat it any given day. It’s just that good.

What’s goes in it?
1 cup of white rice
4 boneless skinless chicken breast diced
1 cup chicken stock
2 cloves Garlic
1 inch Ginger
scallions for garnish

Saute garlic, add chicken stock, bring to a boil, add ginger and rice, turn heat to medium-low then simmer until the rice is slightly mushy, then add chicken, cook until chicken is tender, salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot and garnish with scallions.
