I used an old magazine clipping as reference. I don't like dried out stringy chicken breast, so I thought I would try it out.

Make sure the chicken does not stick out of the broth.
You can use the broth for soups and other dishes.
I thought I'd make bang bang chicken or ramen using the broth. Recipe by John Lee Cooker

Steps

1

Put plenty of water (so that the chicken doesn't stick out above) in a pan and bring to a boil. Add the chicken, ginger, leek and sake, set the heat to medium, and bring to a boil again. Turn the heat down to very low, and simmer for 1.5 to 2 minutes or so while skimming off the scum. Turn the heat off, cover with a lid and leave as-is for about 20 minutes.
2

Transfer the chicken with the cooking liquid to a plastic container, and leave it until it has cooled completely. Make sure the chicken is totally immersed in the liquid! When the chicken has cooled completely, it's done!
