All-in-a-pot Chicken Rice

When you are too lazy to prepare a meat and a vegetable dish to go with your rice, what better idea is there than to throw everything into one pot. There's a lazy way to do this and a tastier way to cook this. Feel free to experiment.

Ingredients:
Chicken breast (cut into cubes)
Ginger (sliced)
Dried oysters
Dried scallops
Dried mushroom
Rice


Soak (or boil) the dried oysters, scallops and mushroom til soft. Then cut them up into small pieces.

Marinate the chicken breasts with sesame oil, salt, pepper, soy sauce and some corn flour (cooking wine is optional). Once this is done, start by cooking some rice in the rice cooker.

You can start to stir fry the ginger, dried scallops, oysters and mushrooms. Fry til slightly golden brown, then add chicken. Add some oyster sauce to taste. Dish them out when the chicken is half cooked. Pour the stir-fried mixture into your rice cooker when your rice is half-cooked. Let it cook in the rice cooker til done.

Lazy way:
You don't have to stir-fry the ingredients. Mix your marinated chicken and other ingredients with oyster sauce and cooking wine (optional) and pour into rice cooker when rice is boiling. Cook til done. Your all-in-a pot chicken rice is ready!
