Cook the chicken bone with enough water, you may add any vegetables such as carrot, rest spring onion, parsley stem (if you have, I always keep it). After boiling, simmer it for minimum 1 hour. Here is the picture which I have made the chicken stock the day before and deboned the chicken.

Soak the rice in water for around 30 minutes. Strain it out. Keep it aside.
Remove out the bone and strain the chicken stock. Keep it aside
Get your rice pot, heat 1 tbsp oil and 1 tbsp sesame oil, add 50 gr onion, 2 tbsp chopped ginger, stir it for 2 minutes, add 2 cups of soaked rice. Stir it evenly. Add 4 cups of chicken stock. Boil it on the stove for 10 minutes, close the lid and turn off heat, let it steam.
Prepare the chili condiment: mix the rest ginger, sliced spring onion, chopped green chili together, add 2 tbsp sesame oil, add salt, pepper, pinch chicken powder. Mix it well. Keep aside
Boil the chicken stock. When it is boiled, add in the chicken breast. Let it boiled for 5 to 7 minutes and turn down the heat. Poach it for another 3 minutes. Check the doneness of chicken. Remove it out and slice it.
