ข้าวมันไก่) is a dish with Chinese background where tender boiled chicken is served on aromatic rice. The rice used is
cooked in chicken broth instead of water. Khao Mun Gai is typically served with a clear chicken soup with radish and a sour-spicy sauce. The dish is the Thai
interpretation of “Wenchang chicken” (文昌雞) from Hainan in southern China.
