Patting dry the chicken before marinating gives you the crispy chicken skin on the outside during roasting. It is a great dish to serve on days when you want to leave the chicken in the oven and just get on with your errands. The bacon gives a nice smoky taste to the skin so do not add too much salt in the marinade.
This is a sweet and savory chicken macaroni that requires so little effort. I made this during the last 10-minute before I had to run out of the house to pick the kids. The evaporated milk makes the soup so creamy and savory, the kids couldn't resist having the 2nd bowl. This dish can also be cooked in a thermal pot or on stove top. Add more water if you are cooking this dish on stove-top to prevent the soup from drying out.
This rice cooker pumpkin rice dish is really easy to cook and the minced dried shrimps adds a fragrant umami twist to the dish. Cooking it in a rice cooker saves time and allows busy mothers to be throwing ingredients into the rice cooker and running off for errands.
