Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 482°F (482°F).
- 2Rinse the jasmine rice until the water runs clear, then drain.
- 3In a pot, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat. Add the sliced ginger and garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

- 7Place the chicken on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for about 18 minutes, or until the skin is crisp and the meat reaches an internal temperature of 167°F (165°F).
- 8While the chicken roasts, prepare the sauce: crush the coriander roots in a mortar, then add minced garlic, a pinch of salt, minced ginger, Thai yellow soybean paste, vinegar, sugar, Thai soy sauce, dark sweet soy sauce, sliced chilies, and sliced coriander stems. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
- 9When the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice or serve whole.
- 10Drizzle the prepared sauce over the chicken and serve alongside the fluffy jasmine rice.
