4 dried shitake mushrooms
600g (1.3 lb) chicken thigh fillets, cut into roughly 4cm pieces
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp dark sweet soy sauce
2 tsp sesame oil, plus extra to drizzle at the end
1 tsp cornflour (cornstarch)
2 Chinese lap cheong sausages, sliced
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tbsp finely grated ginger
2 cups jasmine rice
2 cups chicken stock
½ cup Chinese Shaoxing cooking wine
1 tbsp honey
sliced spring onion (scallions), to serve
Soak the dried mushrooms in hot water for 15 minutes to soften. Remove and discard the stems from the mushrooms. Cut the mushrooms in half.
Combine the chicken with the soy sauce, dark sweet soy sauce, sesame oil and cornflour.
In a large claypot or heavy-based pot with a lid (cast iron dutch ovens are ideal if you don’t have a claypot), place the chicken, mushrooms, sausage, garlic, ginger and rice. Mix until well combined. Add the chicken stock, Chinese wine and honey and stir until mixed thoroughly. Cover and place over a high heat and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, turn the heat to low and cook gently for 30 minutes or until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
Remove the lid. Sprinkle the top of the rice with spring onion and a drizzle of sesame oil. Serve warm.
– You can also make this in a rice cooker. Marion tested the recipe in the Panasonic 10 Cup Rice Cooker (CN188WST). Simply place all the ingredients into the bowl of the rice cooker and select the ‘Claypot’ cooking function for an automatic cook time.
Super easy to make and clean up!
I’m 5 months pregnant and trying to catalog a lot of easy one pot meals before baby comes and this checks all of the boxes! I made this in a 5 cup zojirushi rice maker and cooked it on the mixed rice setting. This is definitely going on a weekly rotation!

I love everything you make. Since finding your YouTube channel, not a day has gone by that I haven’t watched at lease a short reel. I would buy all you cookbooks and cookware and sauces if only you shipped to South Africa. 😞
Absolutely delicious.
Thought i would test out my panasonic rice cooker with this recipe. Got home after work, wacked it all in, and had an amazing meal. Family were very happy with the recipe. Going to be a regular meal for sure.
