Wash the glutinous rice in several rinses of water. Drain off the water completely
Mix all the seasonings together in a bowl and set aside. Cut the chicken into small bite-size, about 1/2 inch pieces
Soak the mushrooms in 2 cups of hot water until soft and plump up, about 10 minutes. Remove the stems and thinly sliced. Reserve the soaking water to cook the rice later
Preheat a large skillet. Add cooking oil. Stir-fry garlic for about 30 seconds. Add the chicken and cook until they turn opaque (won't be fully cooked yet). Add sliced shiitake and stir fry for another minute
Add the rice and seasonings and stir to mix. Transfer to a heat-proof bowl that will fit in your 6-quart instant pot. Pour in 2 cups of liquid. Use a spoon to stir and to make sure the rice is submerged under the liquid
Continue cooking with Instant Pot:
Pour 1 cup of water into the inner pot of Instant pot. Place the trivet in there. Set your bowl on top of the trivet
Close the lid. Turn the steam release valve to seal. Press pressure cooker and then high pressure. Set timer to 30 minutes
When the timer is up, wait for 5 minutes and then release all the pressure. Carefully unlock the lid and remove the bowl
Prepare panko breadcrumbs topping:
While the sticky rice is cooking, melt butter on a non-stick skillet. Add panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder (if using) and pinch of salt (to your taste) and stir fry over medium heat until the breadcrumbs turn golden brown, about 5 minutes. Have a taste and add more salt if needed. Set aside
Serving:
Transfer the cooked sticky rice to a serving platter. Topped with some chopped green onion (if using) and then sprinkle with the panko breadcrumbs toppings and crispy fried shallos (if using).Absolutely delish!!!
