Creamy Mushroom Chicken Cheese Rice

A fresh and fragrant mushroom and chicken cheese rice that's creamy and flavorful, combining tender chicken, earthy mushrooms, and melted cheese for pure comfort.

Ingredients

• 300 g chicken pieces
• 1 bowl cooked white rice
• 150 g fresh mushrooms
• 1 red onion
• 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp black truffle liver paste
• 3 slices cheese
• to taste cooking oil
• to taste fresh herbs

Instructions

1. 1Season the Chicken

   

   Add dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, and black pepper to a bowl containing the raw chicken pieces to build a savory base flavor.

   Tip: Make sure to measure the sauces evenly to ensure the chicken absorbs a rich flavor without becoming overly salty.
2. 2Marinate the Chicken

   

   Using gloved hands, thoroughly mix the chicken pieces with the added seasonings so that each piece is well coated, then leave them to marinate for a few minutes.

   Tip: Letting the chicken sit for a few minutes helps the soy sauce and oyster sauce penetrate the meat deeply.
3. 3Slice the Mushrooms

   

   Take the fresh mushrooms and carefully slice them into even pieces on a wooden cutting board using a sharp knife.

   Tip: Ensure your knife is sharp for clean and even mushroom slices.
4. 4Fry the Chicken

   

   Transfer the marinated chicken pieces into a hot pan and fry them until they are nicely browned on the outside, locking in the juices.

   Tip: Ensure the pan is hot before adding the chicken to get a nice sear and lock in the juices.
5. 5Sauté Red Onions

   

   Heat a drizzle of cooking oil in the pan over medium heat, then add the chopped red onions and sauté until fragrant and translucent.

   Tip: Sautéing onions forms the aromatic flavor base for the entire rice dish.
6. 6Add and Cook Mushrooms

   

   Add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onions to the pan, cooking them together until they shrink and brown slightly to concentrate their earthy flavor.

   Tip: Cook the mushrooms until they shrink and brown slightly to concentrate their earthy flavor.
7. 7Combine Chicken and Rice

   

   Return the cooked chicken and add a bowl of cooked white rice directly into the pan, breaking up any clumps with a spatula to mix evenly.

   Tip: Break up any clumps of rice with a spatula so it mixes evenly with the other ingredients.
8. 8Add Black Truffle Paste

   

   Scoop a spoonful of black truffle liver paste and mix it thoroughly into the rice and chicken mixture to elevate the dish with rich aromas.

   Tip: A little bit of truffle paste goes a long way, so adjust the amount to your personal taste preference.
9. 9Top with Cheese and Melt

   

   Arrange slices of cheese evenly over the fried rice mixture, cover the pan with a lid, and let it simmer on low heat until completely melted.

   Tip: Low heat prevents the bottom of the rice from burning while allowing the steam to melt the cheese smoothly.
