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

Ingredients

  1. 1as much as you need Chicken thigh, breast or tenderloin
  2. 1Ginger
  3. 1The green part of a Japanese leek
  4. 1 tbspSake

Cooking Instructions

  1. 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. 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!
