Ingredients
- 2 cups sweet rice (also called sticky rice)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 Chinese sausage lop cheung, sliced; can substitute bacon or any other gluten-free sausage, links of
- 8 ounces shiitake mushrooms thinly sliced, or substitute re-constituted dried shiitake mushrooms, fresh
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or gluten-free soy sauce)
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce (or 1 teaspoon molasses, if you want to stay gluten-free)
- 1 cup chicken stock low-sodium
- 2 scallions (thinly sliced)
Instructions
- Cook the sweet rice (sticky rice). The most foolproof way is to soak it overnight (or at least 6 hours), and then steam it for 40 minutes. If you have a rice cooker with a sweet rice setting, you can also cook it that way.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add 2 tablespoons oil. When oil is hot, add the onions and sliced Chinese sausage. Cook for 3-5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until caramelized.
- Add the cooked rice, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, chicken stock, and scallions. Mix until the rice is an even brown color.
- Spread the stuffing out evenly in the pan, and transfer to the oven. Roast the stuffing for 15 minutes, until crisp on the top and bottom. Serve!
