Made exactly as written. I liked the egg! Was fairly bland though. Needed something, just not sure what it is. After a few bites, I did get soy sauce, as others mentioned.

I use my blackstone grill sort of like a habitchi. I use way more Sesame Oil, i use toasted sesame seeds (omg puts it over the edge of taste) . So here is what i do. I use my instant pot and make my rice ahead of time. (make sure to fluff your rice when it is done in the instant pot or it will become gummy) I chop onions, (you can use rotisserie chicken or you can use can chicken) (sometimes i put in my frozen peas but the last two times i left it out but you can really use any vegetable you like or the kiddos) Now i make 2 cups of rice because i need enough to last a few days as we tend to gobble it up fast. I chop up my rotisserie chicken or canned depending on what you have on hand. I also use gluten free teriyaki sauce again not a lot because i want to taste the sesame more. Now when i am cutting everything up you can go ahead an sprinkle salt, garlic powder, and a little pepper on everything. this just keeps it easier on me carrying everything out to the blackstone grill. I throw the onions on the grill, the peas, the chicken and cook them a bit. DUmp the rice on the grill and you can add the others anytime during this process as you see fit as it all goes together anyway. I use the whole bottle of Seasame Oil and alot of the seeds i throw on the grill just to toast them a bit too. Now i add butter also to everything I am cooking (unsalted). ran out of room. email me for the rest patti.gelinas@yahoo.com","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2019-03-13","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"jkcoach98"},"reviewBody":"I thought this was a good tasty dish.
