Fried Shallots
- 5 shallots, finely sliced
- 1 cup vegetable oil
Protein
- 2 Chinese sausage links, thinly sliced
- 1/4 yellow onion, sliced

- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
- 3 tablespoons sweet soy sauce

Directions
Sticky Rice
- Cook the sticky rice. Place the rice in a rice cooker with 1½ cups water and a teaspoon of salt. Mix and cook in the rice cooker.
Fried Shallots
- Prepare the shallots. Peel and finely slice the shallots using a knife of mandolin. The shallots should be about 2-3 millimeters thick. On a paper tower lined baking sheet, separate the slices into individual layers and gently blot away excess moisture with a paper towel.
- Fry the shallots. Heat the vegetable oil to about 150°F or 65°C over medium low heat. Make sure to use a thermometer to measure the heat of the oil. Add the shallots and gently fry, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking. Keep a close watch on the shallots. They should turn a rich golden brown in about 5-7 minutes. The cooking time may be longer depending the temperature of the oil and how moist the shallots are. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried shallots to a paper towel lined baking sheet. Spread the shallots into a thin layer to cool and crisp.
Protein
- Prepare the protein. Shred the rotisserie chicken with a fork and thinly slice the Chinese sausage.
- Cook the Chinese sausage. In a medium skillet, add the Chinese sausage onto a thin layer and cook on medium high heat until lightly charred about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
- Cook the Chicken. In a large skillet, heat 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil on medium high and sauté the sliced onion until translucent and lightly browned about 4 minutes. When the onions are caramelized, toss in the chicken, black pepper, chicken bouillon powder and sweet soy sauce on medium high and toss together until combined. Cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes.
Serve
- Serve the sticky rice with the chicken, sausage and fried shallots. Top with sliced green onions and a drizzle of soy sauce. Enjoy!
