KIMCHI FRIED RICE

Not the high-heat stir-fry you might expect, Grace Lee's home-style fried-rice recipe uses a simple technique - make an easy, flavorful kimchi sauce, mellowed out with butter, and sauté leftover rice in it. It's perfect for a snack or a quick, simple meal. The Spam, though optional, reflects many Koreans' love of foods introduced by the American military.

Time 30m

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 small onion, medium dice
1 cup roughly chopped kimchi (6 ounces)
2 tablespoons kimchi juice, or to taste
1/2 cup small-dice Spam, ham or leftover cooked meat
2 cups cooked, cooled rice (preferably short-grain)
2 teaspoons soy sauce, or to taste
1 teaspoon sesame oil, or to taste
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 eggs
Salt to taste
Crumbled or slivered nori (roasted seaweed) for garnish
Sesame seeds for garnish

Steps:

  • In a nonstick sauté pan or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat, and add onions. Cook, stirring, until the onions start to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Add kimchi and kimchi juice, and stir until it comes to a boil, about 3 minutes. Add Spam, and cook until sauce is nearly dried out, about 5 minutes.
  • Break up the rice in the pan with a spatula, and stir it to incorporate. Turn heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until the rice has absorbed the sauce and is very hot, about 5 minutes. Stir in soy sauce and sesame oil. Taste, and adjust with more soy sauce, sesame oil or kimchi juice. Turn heat down slightly, but let the rice continue to cook, untouched, to lightly brown while you cook the eggs.
  • Place a small nonstick sauté pan over medium heat, and add the vegetable oil. When it is hot, add eggs, season with salt and fry to your desired doneness. Serve rice topped with fried eggs, nori and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

SHEET-PAN KIMCHI FRIED RICE



Sheet-Pan Kimchi Fried Rice image

Kimchi fried rice doesn't need a weeknight makeover - it's already so easy. But this oven method maximizes the surface area of the dish by using a sheet pan, increasing the potential for that coveted nurungji, or scorched rice. By baking this dish, you can start with fresh rice (no need for day-old), as the dry oven heat draws out the moisture from the moist grains and turns them crispy-chewy, plus the only active cooking required here is stirring together the ingredients. The oven handles the rest, which means no actual stir-frying. Eggs cracked on top, gently baked to silky perfection, are a necessary finish, as the runny yolks sauce the gochugaru-stained rice.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups uncooked medium-grain white rice
1/4 cup toasted sesame oil
1/4 cup gochujang
1/4 cup napa cabbage kimchi juice, plus 16 ounces kimchi, coarsely chopped (about 2 cups)
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
Salt
1 large onion, cut into medium dice
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
20 grams gim (often labeled as roasted seaweed), crushed
6 large eggs

Steps:

  • Place the rice in a sieve and rinse it under cold running water, shaking constantly, just a few seconds. Add the rinsed rice and 2 cups cold water to a rice cooker or medium pot and soak for 10 minutes. If using a rice cooker, turn it on and cook rice until soft and fluffy. If using a pot, bring the water to a simmer over high heat, then reduce the heat to very low, cover and continue simmering, without peeking, for 20 minutes; remove the pot from the heat and let the rice finish steaming, still covered, until the grains are soft, distended and a little shiny, about 10 minutes. Uncover your cooked rice, fluff with a fork and set aside.
  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 425 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, gochujang, kimchi juice, soy sauce and sugar. Season generously with salt, then stir in the chopped kimchi and onion. Add the cooked rice, butter and seaweed and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt.
  • Transfer the rice mixture to a large rimmed sheet pan and spread out loosely. Bake until the top of the rice is crispy and chewy but not burned, 25 to 30 minutes, opening the oven door halfway through (to check on it, but also to let excess moisture out during the cooking).
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Using a spoon, create 6 shallow depressions in the rice. Crack the eggs into the depressions and place the pan back in the oven until the egg whites have just set, 3 to 6 minutes. Serve immediately, while the eggs are still runny.

Tips:

- Use a large skillet or wok to cook the chicken and vegetables. This will help to prevent overcrowding and ensure that the ingredients cook evenly. - If you don't have Korean gochujang sauce, you can substitute another spicy sauce, such as sriracha or chili sauce. However, gochujang has a unique flavor that is difficult to replicate, so if you can find it, it's worth using. - To make the kimchi fried rice, use day-old rice. This will help to prevent the rice from becoming too sticky. - If you don't have kimchi, you can use another fermented vegetable, such as sauerkraut or pickles. However, kimchi has a unique flavor that is difficult to replicate, so if you can find it, it's worth using. - Serve the Korean glazed chicken breast and kimchi fried rice immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh.

Conclusion:

Troy's Korean glazed chicken breast with kimchi fried rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the kimchi fried rice is a great way to use up leftover rice. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
