Use cold rice because it retains its shape and stays separate, so each grain will be evenly coated with the seasonings. You can also use long-grain brown rice, or a combination of white and brown. If you can't find baby bok choy, substitute 6 cups coarsely chopped regular bok choy. Ingredients:
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces |
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, divided |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
1/2 cup chopped shallots |
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
4 cups thinly sliced shiitake mushroom caps (about 6 ounces mushrooms) |
3 cups cold cooked sushi rice or other short-grain rice |
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper |
1 pound baby bok choy, quartered lengthwise |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
2 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted |
Directions:
1. Combine chicken and 1 tablespoon soy sauce, tossing to coat.
2. Heat canola oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add shallots, ginger, and garlic; sauté 10 seconds. Add chicken mixture and mushrooms; sauté 4 minutes. Add rice, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add bok choy; cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
3. Push rice mixture to one side of pan. Add egg to empty side of pan; cook 1 minute or until almost set, stirring constantly. Stir egg into rice mixture. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
