Hawaiian Chicken and Coconut Rice

This recipe was originally 'Hawaiian Grilled Chicken' but then it rained.

Haiwaiian Made-In-a-Pan Chicken and Coconut Rice
2 cans coconut milk
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup water
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon garlic
1/4 cup chopped white onion
1 handful green onion
1/4 tsp cooking oil
3 large chicken breasts
motherfucking rice


The first thing you're going to want to do is un-can the coconut milk. For some reason it did not smell like sweet and fragrant coconuts. It smelled sort of like cat-butt. The solids and the coconut water will doubtlessly be separated so scoop that shit out into a bowl and whisk it around until it's like a runny paste.

Combine everything into a big mixing bowl except you'll only want to use half a can of coconut milk and the rice is for the side so don't throw that in there. Mix it, as per bowl instructions.

At this point I halved the chicken breasts for faster cooking and marinating. I threw them in the mixing bowl with the marinade, covered, and left it in the fridge while I went and picked up The Goonies 25th Anniversary Box at Best Buy with my boyfriend. It came with a board game. It was cool.

Now, once a few hours have passed you'll want to heat up a frying pan with a little butter and throw the marinated chicken on there. Here you will cook them on medium heat for forever.

In a saucepan bring 2 cups white rice to a boil in a mixture of 2 cups water and 2 cups coconut milk. Cover and reduce heat. Keep opening it and mixing it around or the coconut may burn to the bottom and then you might as well throw the pan away because no one wants to clean that.

Every now and then between chapters in your book turn the chicken over. After about ten minutes I covered them and let them simmer for a few minutes on each side. You'll know when they're getting done because the marinade sticking to the chicken will have reduced and the sticky, delicious brown sugar will be searing to the sides of the chicken.

Pull the chicken out, put it on a plate, and throw in the rice. Garnish if you'd like. This is what I did:

I am awesome and so can you.

I put the still warm rice into a small drinking glass. It formed to it immediately and then slid out of the glass in that shape. I topped it with a few fried onions and some fresh green onion. I then drizzled soy sauce onto the rice and circled the plate with drips of Rooster Sauce.

TIPZ:
-make a lot of rice since you can refrigerate it and make COCONUT FRIED RICE.
