Hawaiian Chicken & Fried Rice
Simple ingredients make the most delicious, 'can't-stop-eating' chicken ever.
½ cup sake - or sub with dry sherry, dry vermouth or white wine - or leave it out and it'll still be great
6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
Rice
2 tablespoons neutral oil
2 – 7 ounce cooked rice packs like these, or about 3 cups cooked, cold day old rice
3 tablespoons soy paste
3 eggs, beaten
1-2 tablespoons Sriracha
4 green onions, white and light green parts finely chopped
Salt to taste
Directions
Chicken
In a large bowl or zippered bag combine the pineapple juice, soy, garlic, ginger, sugar and sake - mix well to dissolve sugar
Add the chicken, making sure it's covered and refrigerate up to 8 hours
When ready to cook, pour the marinating liquid into a small pot and bring to a full boil for 30 seconds, then remove from the heat and allow to cool
Heat grill, griddle, pan or wherever you want to cook the chicken, add a little oil and put on the chicken
Cook, turning often and basting with the cooled sauce once you get grill or griddle marks - cook to 175 degrees, then remove and cover with foil to keep warm
Slice, and serve on top of the rice
Rice
Heat oil in a griddle or pan to medium high, then add the rice - stir constantly about a minute to heat through - add the soy, and mix in
Push rice to the side, add a little more oil then the eggs - stir to scramble until just getting firm, then mix into the rice
Continue mixing while you add the sriracha and half the green onions
Serve with the chicken and topped with remaining green onions
