Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 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.
step 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.
step 3
Set your Instant Pot to “Sauté” mode. When it is done pre-heating, pour Cooking Oil (3 Tbsp) into the inner pot.
step 4
Sauté Dried Ginger (1 piece) and Garlic (3 cloves) for about 1 minute until aromatic.
step 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.
step 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.
step 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.
step 8
Set the Instant Pot to “Pressure Cook” at low for 10 minutes.
step 9
Allow it to sit for 10 more minutes to naturally release the pressure, then finish with a Quick Pressure Release.
step 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.
step 11
Top with Scallions (to taste), then serve with Sambal (to taste) and Dark Soy Sauce (to taste). Enjoy!
