Sesame Ginger & Rotisserie Chicken Grain Bowl

Making a meal that’s easy and nourishing isn’t mutually exclusive, and this recipe is the proof. With a rice cooker and set-it-and-forget-it instructions, this delicious recipe comes together quickly right in your own kitchen.


This dish utilizes your rice cooker to its full potential, using it for quinoa, green peas, and edamame as well as the rice. The slow steam process cooks each element to perfection without requiring constant monitoring or stirring. While that part takes care of itself, you can prepare the easy dressing and debone the rotisserie chicken so dinner is ready as soon as the rice mixture is cooked.


The finishing touch of this dinner is the creamy sesame ginger sauce. With just a little bit of Kewpie mayonnaise, you can turn your dressing into a rich, delicious sauce that rivals your favorite sushi restaurant.
