This glutinous rice with chicken recipe belongs to my mother. She used to be a cooking instructor with PA for 35 years. Other than glutinous rice – yam cake, nonya dumplings, mooncake, pineapple tarts are also all my mom’s specialty. I wanted to share this recipe because my siblings love it very much when my mom makes it for us to have it for breakfast on the first day of CNY every year. This recipe always brings us joy whenever we are eating and I hope to do the same for others.
