This site is the venue of my collection of special and ordinary Philippine and American dishes. For the last 55 years, My wife, Macrine Nieva Jambalos Katague had been the boss in the Kitchen. However, when she was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2013, I have to take over her cooking duties. I have been enjoying cooking and this proves that one is never too old to learn new things in life.

Chicken Arroz Caldo ( Rice Porridge)
Yesterday, I cooked for the first time a dish that my wife loves when she is not feeling well. I have never cooked this dish, but I saw the following recipe from allrecipe.com. In the Philippines this is not considered as a main dish but only a merienda or snack. This dish was enjoyed by my wife yesterday since she had a hard time swallowing food because of her PD.
Original recipe makes 5 servings Change Servings
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (2 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
2 1/4 pounds chicken wings, split and tips discarded
1 tablespoon fish sauce
5 1/4 cups chicken broth
1 cup glutinous sweet rice
salt and pepper to taste
1 green onion, chopped
1 lemon, sliced (optional)
1 teaspoon fish sauce for sprinkling, if desired (optional)
Directions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir the onion, garlic, and ginger in the hot oil until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken wings; cook and stir together for 1 minute. Stir the fish sauce into the pot, cover, and cook another 2 minutes.
Pour the chicken broth into the pot. Add the sweet rice and stir. Bring the mixture to a boil; cover and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to assure the rice is not sticking to the bottom of the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the green onion, and serve with lemon slices and additional fish sauce, if desired.

Personal Note: I omitted the fish sauce since I do not like it, but used Kikkoman soy sauce instead.
