Cooking Instructions
1.
Marinate the Chicken Drumsticks (6 pieces) with Sesame Oil (2 Tbsp), Salt (1 tsp), and a dash of Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Allow it to marinate for 15 minutes.
2.
Pour White Rice (2 cups) into a sieve, then rinse under running water just until the water starts to run clear. Allow the water to drain as much as possible from the rice.
3.
Set your Instant Pot to “Sauté” mode. When it is done pre-heating, pour Cooking Oil (3 Tbsp) into the inner pot.
4.
Sauté Dried Ginger (1 piece) and Garlic (3 cloves) for about 1 minute until aromatic.
5.
Add the uncooked rice to the Instant Pot and use a wooden spoon to sauté the rice in the garlic and ginger oil for about 3 minutes.
6.
Pour Chicken Stock (2 cups) and the remaining Salt (1 tsp) into the Instant Pot, then press the cancel button to turn off the Sauté feature. Use a wooden spatula to gently scrape the bottom of the pan to prevent the rice from sticking.
7.
Place the marinated chicken drumsticks on top of the rice, then drizzle a splash of Sesame Oil (1 Tbsp) and a dash of Ground Black Pepper (to taste) over the chicken.
8.
Set the Instant Pot to “Pressure Cook” at low for 10 minutes.
9.
Allow it to sit for 10 more minutes to naturally release the pressure, then finish with a Quick Pressure Release.
10.
Remove the Instant Pot lid, then set the chicken drumsticks aside. Fluff up the rice with a fork or a rice paddle, then let it sit for a couple more minutes before serving to allow the rice to dry out a bit for better texture.
11.
Top with Scallions (to taste), then serve with Sambal (to taste) and Dark Soy Sauce (to taste). Enjoy!
