Ingredients

• 2 cups Jasmine rice
• 2.5 cups Water
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 1 Lemongrass stalk
• 500 grams Chicken thigh fillets
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 4 Hard-boiled eggs
• 1 Cucumber, sliced
• 2 Carrots, julienned
• 2 Red chilies, sliced
• 1 cup Peanuts, roasted
• 2 tablespoons Sambal oelek
• 1 cup Fried-shrimp krupuk

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

Step 2

In a medium-sized pot, combine the rinsed rice, water, and coconut milk. Add the lemongrass stalk by bruising it with the side of a knife and throwing it in the pot.

Step 3

Bring the rice mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice is fully cooked and the liquid is absorbed. Set aside.

Step 4

Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, marinate the chicken with soy sauce and half of the minced garlic for about 15 minutes.

Step 5

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 7-10 minutes until the chicken is golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

Step 6

Slice the hard-boiled eggs in half.

Step 7

In a separate skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the rest of the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.

Step 8

Add the sliced chilies and julienned carrots to the skillet and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.

Step 9

Prepare the plate by arranging a serving of coconut rice as the base.

Step 10

Around the rice, place portions of the cooked chicken, hard-boiled eggs, cucumber slices, stir-fried carrots and chilies, and roasted peanuts.

Step 11

Serve with sambal oelek on the side and garnish with fried-shrimp krupuk.

Step 12

Enjoy your Nasi Campur, a delightful mix of flavors and textures!
