Suam na Mais

Suam na Mais

• 3 fresh corn, hulled
• 1 tablespoon oil
• ½ small onion, peeled and sliced thinly
• 1 to 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
• ½ pound boneless chicken thigh meat, diced
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 6 to 8 cups water or chicken stock
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup spinach, stems trimmed

Cooking Instructions:

1. Using a grater, grate corn kernels from 2 of the corn. Using a knife, make long downward strokes on the remaining cob to separate kernels. Using a spoon, scrape cobs to extract remaining bits and liquid. Discard cobs.
2. In a pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until limp and aromatic. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until color changes and juices run clear. Add fish sauce and continue to cook for about 1 to 2 minutes.
3. Add chicken stock and bring to a boil, skimming scum as it rises to top. Add corn. Lower heat, cover and simmer until chicken and corn are cooked through and liquid is reduced and slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Turn off heat and add spinach, stirring to combine. Serve hot.
