Ingredients
- 1.5 cups jasmine rice
- ¾ lb boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 oz Chinese sausage (lap cheong), sliced thin
- ½ medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 stalks scallions, chopped (white and green separated)
- 2 tbsp neutral cooking oil
Instructions
- 1
Rinse rice under cold water until water runs clear, then drain. Add 2.25 cups water to a clay pot or heavy skillet.
- 2
Bring water to a boil over medium-high heat, then add rice. Stir once, lower heat to medium-low, and cover tightly.
- 3
While rice cooks, heat oil in a separate skillet over medium-high. Brown chicken pieces, breaking up clumps, until edges turn golden, about 4 minutes.
- 4
Add sausage and diced onion to the chicken. Stir for 2 minutes until sausage releases its oil and onion softens.
- 5
Pour soy sauce over the chicken mixture and stir. After rice has cooked about 12 minutes total, scatter the chicken mixture on top without stirring.

Re-cover the pot and cook 3 more minutes. Remove from heat, fluff rice gently with a fork, top with scallion whites and greens, and serve hot.
