I needed to use up some chicken breasts and thought of Nasi ayam paprik (Paprik style chicken rice). I don't know why as I hardly eat it back home in Malaysia. Then I combined the chicken dish with another Malay favourite - Nasi goreng pattaya (Pattaya fried rice).
It was hard to make this plate photogenic ; but you can view here for some delicious looking photos.
