Hainanese chicken rice is a Chinese rice dish most commonly associated with Malaysian cuisine or Singaporean cuisine, although it is also commonly sold in neighbouring Thailand, and found in Hainan, China itself. So-called due to its roots in Hainan cuisine and its adoption by the Hainanese overseas Chinese population in the Nanyang area, the version found in Malaysia/Singapore combines elements of Hainanese and Cantonese cuisines along with culinary preferences in the Southeast Asian region. The Hainanese chicken rice originated from China, and is Chinese in origin.
海南雞飯起源於中國海南島的文昌雞。當地人會以白切雞的做法，同時配以雞油和雞湯烹煮的米飯。二十世紀初期，隨著移民潮，這個菜式傳至東南亞，包括馬來西亞、新加坡及泰國等地，當中在馬來西亞和新加坡發揚光大。
