A simple recipe for chicken and bamboo shoot rice made easily in a rice cooker. The secret ingredient, oyster sauce, adds deep umami and richness to this Japanese-style bamboo shoot rice. The fragrant crispy rice at the bottom is also exquisite. It's also recommended for bento boxes and onigiri (rice balls).
