I absolutely love this recipe and make it all the time. It's not exactly traditional but I find it incredibly tasty! The combination of the spicy samabal and the creamy coconut rice with the refreshing cucumber and crunchy peanuts. Each mouthful is divine. The samabal I use is from a brand called Lucullus. The flavour is very intensely salty and spicy so it might not be everyone's cup of tea but the flavour does mellow out a bit when cooked. You can find it on Amazon or an Asian market. Feel free to use frozen chicken in this recipe, I do. If you want to make more servings then just multiply this recipe by the number of servings you want.
