Rinse the sticky rice well, soak it in cold water for 2 hours, and drain.
Put the chicken thigh in a pot with half of the salt and add enough water to cover.
Cook the chicken for 28 minutes, then shred it once warm.
Steam the sticky rice for 25 minutes until tender.
Thinly slice the shallots and fry them in vegetable oil for 6 minutes until golden.
Mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, remaining salt, and black pepper with the shredded chicken.
For xoi ga, place the rice on a plate and top with chicken, shallot oil, and scallions.
💡 Tip: Do not replace sticky rice with regular baldo rice; baldo turns into pilaf, while xoi ga needs a chewy, sticky texture.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve xoi ga hot with cucumber, lime, and hot sauce in small bowls if desired.
