HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Thread the chicken thigh pieces onto the soaked bamboo skewers. Grill the chicken satay skewers over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side, until cooked through and lightly charred. Set aside.

02

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken breast and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned.

03

Add the diced shallots, minced garlic, and red chili flakes to the wok. Sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.

04

Add the day-old cooked jasmine rice to the wok. Break up any clumps with a spatula. Stir in the kecap manis and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the rice is heated through and slightly crispy.

05

While the nasi goreng is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a separate small non-stick pan over medium heat. Crack in one egg and fry for 2-3 minutes until the whites are set and the yolk is still runny. Repeat with the second egg.

06

Divide the nasi goreng between two plates. Top each serving with a fried egg.

07

Serve the nasi goreng with the grilled chicken satay skewers and a side of peanut sauce.

Easy Substitutions

For a vegetarian option, omit the chicken and add 1/2 cup of diced firm tofu to the nasi goreng. Beef or shrimp can be used instead of chicken for the satay. If you don't have kecap manis, you can substitute with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce mixed with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar.
