sizzling rice soup with chicken vegetables and shrimp

Sizzling Rice Soup

This hearty soup with delicious chicken and shrimp goes really well with crispy rice! The sizzling rice soup was created to use the leftover scorched rice from the bottom of the pot after cooking over an open fire. Once the crispy rice is added to the soup, it makes an awesome sizzling sound!

See below to see how to make sizzling rice soup. The vegetables can be changed to what you have on hand and what is in season. Hope you enjoy!

Scorched Rice

In order to make this soup sizzle, you need to use scorched rice. I purchased an already made version from the asian store called ‘instant sizzling rice.’ See below for the product.

INGREDIENTS YOU NEED FOR YOUR SIZZLING RICE SOUP:

chicken marinade:

  • 1 chicken breast, thinly sliced
  • 2 slices of ginger, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

shrimp marinade:

  • 7-8 large shrimp, peeled and de-veined
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 slice of ginger
  • 1 teaspoon corn starch
  • 1/2 teaspoon olive oil

Prepare Vegetables:

  • 4-5 snow peas
  • 1/2 pack shimeji mushrooms
  • 6 white mushrooms
  • 1/4 carrot, sliced thinly
  • 4-5 green beans

Soup:

  • marinated chicken
  • marinated shrimp
  • vegetables of choice
  • 7 cups water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

crispy rice:

  • 6 squares scorched rice (crumbled up)
  • 1-2 cups corn oil (to fry rice)

STEPS TO MAKE THE SIZZLING RICE SOUP

  1. Slice chicken thinly. Add sliced chicken in a bowl and add the following ingredients: 2 thinly sliced ginger, thinly sliced, 3 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon corn starch, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Marinate for 15 minutes.
  2. Peel and de-vein shrimp. Add shrimp in a bowl and add the following ingredients: 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 slice of ginger, 1 teaspoon corn starch, and 1/2 teaspoon olive oil. Marinate for 15 minutes.
  3. Clean and chop your your favorite vegetables. I am using snap peas, shimeji mushrooms, white mushrooms, carrots, and green beans.
  4. Heat pot on medium heat. Add 7 cups of water. Once the water is boiling, add chicken and boil for 2 minutes.
  5. Then, add your carrots, green beans, snap peas, shimeji mushrooms and white mushrooms. Cook for 2 minutes.
  6. To finish the soup, add shrimp, 1 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon and 1/2 teaspoon sugar. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp has been cooked. Cover and set soup aside.
  7. To make the crispy rice, heat 1-2 cups of oil on medium-high heat. Test the oil and make sure its really hot by adding one grain of rice. It should puff up immediately. Add the scorched rice (you can crumble it if you like) when the oil is hot and fry for 20-30 seconds until the rice is puffed up.
  8. Immediately add the hot crispy rice on the soup to make it sizzle! Hope you enjoy!

    I love this soup. It reminds me of the soup from a Chinese restaurant my parents took me to growing up. We would drive over an hour for this soup. I’m so glad I found this. I have made it a couple of times now. Thanks for posting this!

My new favorite soup right now 😍Here’s a supe My new favorite soup right now 😍Here’s a super easy and not traditional Korean ox bone soup aka Seolleongtang 설렁탕 🥰 Super hot bone broth is topped with beautifully marbled beef, Chinese chives, green onions, and some salt and pepper to taste. Add some Korean kimchi radish and it’s chef’s kiss!

See blog post for more detail on the ingredients (like which bone broth I bought) and full recipe ◡̈ You gotta use somen noodles for this recipe. It only takes 3 minutes to make. Tip: boil noodles at the same time as the broth to make cooking fast🍜

Wishing you luck, health and prosperity with this Wishing you luck, health and prosperity with this turnip cake recipe aka loh bok go in cantonese. Gung Hey Fat Choy ([恭喜发财] my dumplings! PS. I don’t recommend saying lai see dou loi unless you’re very close to that relative or you are a young child lol

Full recipe is linked in bio or find on my bloggg 🧧🐰

I finally finished testing out this recipe (it’s beeen a few months haha)! I was struggling with the texture for a little while. Now, the recipe is good to go ◡̈  The flavor is very savory from the chinese sausage and cured pork belly (made from my dad!) and also sweet from the radish. The texture is firm but not too doughy because I loaded this up with lots and lots of radish. You will never find a restaurant that has as much radish as this homemade recipe. Lastly, I pan fried the turnip cake to give it a nice crisp at the end. 

Don’t forget Chinese New Year is celebrated on the eve (21st of January!) so have a nice dinner with your family on Saturday. Then my mom told me to not clean or do any labor on actual Chinese New Years Day (22nd of January). Wishing all you dumplings good health and wealth in the upcoming year.

This egg drop soup is inspired by my parent’s Ch This egg drop soup is inspired by my parent’s Chinese restaurant 😋Silken tofu is cooked in a sweet chicken broth and cornstarch slurry is added to thicken the soup as well as make the smooth & thick texture. 

Some Cantonese restaurants serve this with real crab meat (highly recommend if you have this!) and the color is on the whiter end (hence why we’re using egg whites!). However, if you want to use the whole egg, feel free to use it! The egg yolk makes the soup more yellow and creamy. 

You can google ‘cook with dana egg drop soup’ for full recipe or find it in my link in bio! Hope you have a wonderful week my dumplings and can’t wait to show you my Chinese New Year recipes!

Fridge clean out time! 🙃 Crab jeon (omelette) o Fridge clean out time! 🙃 Crab jeon (omelette) or korean seafood pancake is a great recipe to use all your leftover ingredients in the fridge. For groceries, I always use the ‘first in, first out’ method meaning the older groceries need to be used before eating the new stuff. I’m chopping up leftover vegetables and onions in small pieces and mixing them together with imitation crab. The pancake may taste different depending on what ingredients you have but once you mix it with eggs and some flour (especially korean pancake mix!), it will taste scrumptious in it’s own unique way. 

The next time you stock up, make sure to keep some type of seafood in the freezer at all times. For me, I tend to buy extra imitation crab and shrimp. Then you will always have good staples to make with your leftover ingredients. 

Check link in bio for recipe or google ‘crab jeon dana’ to find full recipe and directions ◡̈ Stay dry california dumplings, there’s lots of rain here haha.

My uncle taught me how to make braised pork over r My uncle taught me how to make braised pork over rice! This dish tastes sweet and savory (similar to teriyaki) which goes so well with rice. The recipe is inspired by Japanese soboro don which is served with scrambled egg, but I think it also reminds me of the Taiwanese dish, Lu rou fan. We cook the ground pork down in some beer to make the meat taste sweeter as well as cut down on the gaminess. 

Don’t forget to serve with hot white rice and a sunny side egg to complete the meal. I was intensely writing down the ingredients and instructions so you can make it at home 😉❤️Check it out in my link in bio or google ‘braised pork rice dana’ 🍚

You’re about to eat 2 bowls of rice with this ea You’re about to eat 2 bowls of rice with this easy and delicious mapo tofu! This is spicy, flavorful and a little tingly from the peppercorn oil. This is not an authentic replica of the sichuan mapo tofu but it’s very close. I would say the dish is a combo of sichuan and cantonese flavors 😍
My uncle taught me how to make this and it’s one of my favorite recipes to cook when I don’t have a lot of ingredients in the fridge. Also eating spicy and hot foods when it’s cold outside always makes me happy for some reason. Check full recipe in the blog or link in bio 🥵❤️‍🔥🌶

Sorry y’all for the lighting in the video. It’s cold and gloomy here in California. Hopefully weather gets better and we can have some golden ☀️ shots! Love you all and stay warm dumplings.
