Chicken Boil with Bamboo Shoot

Chicken Boil with Bamboo Shoot is a traditional, rustic dish loved across the tribal belts of Assam, Nagaland, Manipur, and parts of Odisha. This dish is prepared by gently boiling bone-in chicken with fermented or fresh bamboo shoots, salt, green chilies, ginger, and garlic  without any heavy spices or oil.

The natural sourness and aroma of the bamboo shoot infuse the chicken broth, creating a light yet flavorful soup that’s easy to digest, rich in nutrients, and perfect for all age groups. This is a go-to comfort dish during illness, cold weather, or when craving something simple and wholesome.
