Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Place rice, chicken stock, and water in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Off heat, stir in 2 tablespoons butter and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
Step 2
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add beaten eggs and cook, stirring often to scramble eggs, breaking chunks of eggs into small bits with a spatula.
Step 3
Place cooked rice in a large bowl; add scrambled eggs and toss until well combined.
Step 4
Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add rice mixture, sesame seeds, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring often, for 8 minutes. Taste; season with butter or soy sauce as desired.
