For the Sambal Matah:

  • 10 shallots, thinly sliced

  • 10 red bird's eye chilies, thinly sliced (adjust to taste)

  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 teaspoon of sugar
  • 4 tablespoons of coconut oil, heated

Instructions:

Preparing the Shredded Chicken:

  1. Boil the Chicken: In a pot, bring water to a boil. Add the chicken, bruised lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, bay leaf, and a pinch of salt. Cook until the chicken is fully cooked and tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. Shred the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly. Shred the chicken using two forks or your hands. Set aside.

Preparing the Sambal Matah:

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix the thinly sliced shallots, garlic, red bird's eye chilies, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and crumbled toasted shrimp paste.

Assembling Ayam Suir Sambal Matah:

  1. Combine Chicken and Sambal: Add the shredded chicken to the sambal matah and toss to coat the chicken thoroughly with the sambal.

  2. Serve: Serve the Ayam Suir Sambal Matah with steamed rice and fresh vegetables such as cucumber slices and tomato wedges. Garnish with fresh herbs like basil or cilantro if desired.
