Arroz Caldo

Continuing our September Rice theme, here is an Arroz Caldo recipe from Manong Ken's Carinderia.

Arrroz Caldo is a traditional Filipino dish. It is a stew of rice and chicken which is similar to Chinese congee but different because the rice is not broken. In other words the kernals of rice are intact. If you try this simple recipe, please don't substitute salt for patis (fish sauce) as suggested in the recipe. The taste of the dish will be completely wrong with salt!
