Soupy rice, a classic Chinese dish, is a way to turn leftover cooked rice into a meal. Our version, however, starts with uncooked rice and simmers it in a blend of chicken broth and water before a simple stir-fry of shiitake mushrooms, chicken and bok choy is stirred in. Partially freezing the chicken thighs makes them easier to cut into bits.

Tip

Don’t use a pot smaller than 6 quarts to cook the rice or else the starchy liquid may overflow.
