Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1.5 cups White or jasmine rice (uncooked)
- 3 cups Chicken broth
- 0.25 cups Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 teeth Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, etc.)
- 4 stalks Green onions (sliced)
- 2 large Eggs (beaten)
- 1 cup Crispy chow mein noodles (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.
Cook the rice according to package instructions, using 3 cups of chicken broth instead of water for added flavor. Once cooked, set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cooked rice, frozen mixed vegetables, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
Stir in the beaten eggs and half of the sliced green onions into the mixture. Mix until well combined.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes.
After 35 minutes, remove the foil and sprinkle the crispy chow mein noodles (if using) evenly across the top. Bake uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with the remaining sliced green onions.
Serve hot, or allow the casserole to cool completely if preparing for freezing. To freeze, portion into airtight containers and store for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or oven as needed.
