This chicken flavored rice is toasted and cooked in chicken stock with a few aromatics to give it a delicious flavor.

Ingredients
- 2 ounces chicken fat (or 3 tablespoons neutral oil)
- 4 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
- 3 cups uncooked white rice (preferably jasmine rice, rinsed and drained)
- 4 cups low sodium chicken stock (or no-salt-added homemade chicken stock)
- 1-2 teaspoons salt
- 1- inch slice ginger (optional)
- 1 scallion (cut in half crosswise; optional)
Instructions
- Heat a wok over medium heat. Add the chicken fat and render for about 1 minute (if using oil, just add the oil to the wok). Stir in the garlic, and fry briefly, making sure it doesn’t burn. Add the uncooked rice. Stir continuously for about two minutes. Turn off the heat.
- To cook in a rice cooker, scoop the rice into your rice cooker and add the chicken stock (instead of the usual water) and salt. (The liquid should come up to the ‘4’ line in your rice cooker. See tip box below, and adjust as needed.) Nestle the ginger slices and scallion into the rice, if using. Close the lid and press START.
- If you don’t have a rice cooker, transfer the toasted rice to a pot, and add the chicken stock. Allow the rice to soak in the pot for 30 minutes. After soaking, stir in the salt, ginger, and scallion. Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Once it boils, immediately turn down the heat to the lowest setting. Let the rice cook (covered) for 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the liquid has absorbed into it.
Notes
- Note: when we say 3 cups of rice, we mean 3 US cups, not rice cooker cups.
