Great recipe! Just wanted to say for my attempt, I needed about 2.5 cups of chicken stock for my 1 cup of rice. Typically the 1:1 liquid to rice ratio doesn’t work for me, but I was willing to try it for this recipe. Rice ended up way too dry, but I was able to easily fix it by adding another 1.5 cups of chicken stock. Thank you for sharing!

This looks so comforting and flavorful! Love that it’s all done in one pot easy cleanup and maximum taste. Definitely adding this to my weeknight dinner list

I made this tonight with chicken legs (because that’s what I had) turned out so good! The scallion oil was a game changer.

In reply to MH. hi! leave the lid on for the last 10 minutes, it is to steam the rice!

My husband and I enjoyed this recipe! Definitely comfort food at its finest. I made the mistake of using a short grain rice instead of Jasmine. In that case, I needed to cut back on the stock a bit, as it was a little softer than the firm rice I am used to. But, it was so delish and flavorful…especially with the Scallion Sauce. The garlic, ginger and onion flavors shine beautifully. So simple, yet so, so good! Thank you for sharing!

In reply to Paras. i feel like with a layers of chicken, it might not cook through - i would do some of the chicken separately. do one layer of chicken in the pot with the rice and simply steam the rest of the chicken in another pot. hope that helps!

Hey! I just love the stove-top recipe and this has become a staple in my diet.
Just wanted tk check with you, since I planning pn meal prepping this.
Can I stack up the chicken thighs on the rice in the saute-pan on the stove-top?
I am planning on using 10-12 chicken thighs and I dont have a pan to fit all of them in a single layer.
Thanks! Appreciate for sharing this recipe!
