ingredients
- 4 boneless chicken thighs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon Accent seasoning (monosodium glutamate, this is just for taste, feel free to leave it out)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 garlic cloves, smashed
- 4 -5 slices gingerroot, coarsely chopped
- 1⁄2 cup soy sauce
- 1⁄2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
directions
- Place the first 8 ingredients in a Ziplock bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible, then seal the bag and lay flat. Marinate each side of the thighs for an hour.
- After marinating, pour the contents of the Ziplock bag into the rice cooker. Mix the cornstarch and water until the cornstarch is dissolved, and add that to the rice cooker. Add more water until the thighs are nearly covered. Mix well and turn on the rice cooker.
- As soon as steam begins to come out of the cooker (about 20 minutes), set the timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, stir the thighs and cook another 10 minutes.
- Turn off the rice cooker and let the chicken sit in the cooker for 20 minutes, then serve over white rice.

I don't know when it happened but somehow I started watching the Food Network and that is my default channel to watch these days. I have learned so many good things that I may never use (how to deep fry a turkey), and many things I have used. I used to refuse to cook for myself – how fun is it to cook a great meal for one? But now I cook regularly, and like to find recipes I’ve never tried before – either challenging to cook, or challenging in terms of pushing my eating-comfort-zone.
