Ingredients
Steps
Rinse 1 cup of white rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then drain and add it to the rice cooker pot.
Add the bite-sized chicken thigh pieces on top of the rice.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pot.
Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil.
Add the chicken broth (or water). Ensure the liquid level reaches the appropriate 1-cup mark on your rice cooker bowl, or slightly above if you prefer softer rice.
Close the lid and set the rice cooker to the standard 'White Rice' or 'Cook' setting.
Once the rice cooker switches to 'Warm', let it sit for 5 minutes. Open the lid and fluff the rice with a paddle, mixing the chicken and seasonings thoroughly.
Garnish with sliced green onions and serve hot.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can sear the chicken in a pan for 2 minutes before adding it to the rice cooker, though it is not necessary for this 'one-pot' method. If using brown rice, increase the liquid and cooking time according to your machine's settings.
