  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  3. Bring chicken broth, soy sauce, and chile paste to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Pour broth over rice and stir briefly. Cover the baking dish tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil.

Cooking Tips

Substitute any vegetables; make sure to chop them fine so they fully cook.
You can broil the rice for a few minutes instead of baking it in Step 5.
Be careful! Some sesame oils are strong and can overpower the dish.
Use Chinese barbecue pork instead of ham if preferred.
