Is this Hainan Chicken Rice like what I’d get at a Hainanese restaurant?

It’s close, and in some ways better. Verawaty makes this dish using her family’s recipe, just as she would for loved ones at home. It’s made in small batches, frozen for convenience, and delivered ready to heat and enjoy — all the flavour, none of the queue.

Is the chicken served with skin on or off?

It’s skin-on — just like traditional Hainanese chicken. The skin keeps the chicken moist and tender during cooking, and adds authentic flavour. If you prefer it without, it’s easy to remove once heated.

What is the best Hainanese chicken rice delivered in Australia?

It’s frozen fresh and delivered to your door across NSW, VIC, QLD, ACT and SA. A classic Southeast Asian comfort dish, ready in minutes. No MSG, no shortcuts.

A Stunning Homemade Version of an Asian Classic

"Hainan Chicken Rice isn’t just a meal, it’s a tradition. Growing up, my mum would only make this dish for special occasions, especially on Chinese New Year's Eve when our family gathered around the table. She passed down her recipe to me, and over the years, I’ve added my own twist to make it even more flavourful. Now, it’s my kids' favourite dish, and I’m excited to share it with you."

This isn’t a meal you can rush and each step matters. Whole chickens are boiled in stock to keep them tender and juicy, then deboned. The chicken broth infuses the fragrant Hainan rice and pairs perfectly with the ginger/shallot and chilli sauce on the side.
