A quartered whole chicken simmered with slices of papaya simmered in a broth heavily flavored with freshly cracked black pepper, ginger, and scallions. Served over white rice. Also with a few pieces of pan-fried chicken.It was great. With all the black pepper and ginger, the broth has a lot of flavor and depth to it. And since I'm on the verge of getting sick, it really warmed me up and helped clear my sinuses. The chicken in the broth was simmered perfectly, but I mostly stuck to the fried chicken. I was in the mood for something crispier and saltier. But the real highlight was the papaya. It was so ripe and sweet. And it adds so much to the visual presentation of the dish, being bright orange/pink.
