Ingredients:

• Leftover chicken 
• 2 packs of instant rice (150g) 
• Seasoned seaweed flakes 
• Kimchi 
• A bit of sesame oil 
• A bit of allulose 
• A bit of soy sauce 
• 3 slices of pickled radish 
• 1 slice of ham 
• 1 egg(All ingredients are optional, so feel free to use what you have!)

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Leftover Chicken
Reheat the leftover chicken in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes. If necessary, remove bones and chop the chicken into small, bite-sized pieces. If your chicken is not flavored, mix it with a bit of ketchup or mustard to enhance its taste. 

Step 2: Prepare the Kimchi Mixture
Finely chop the kimchi and mix it with 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, a little sesame oil, and a bit of allulose (or a small pinch of sugar). Stir-fry the kimchi mixture over low heat for 1-2 minutes to bring out a deep umami flavor. 

Step 3: Cook the Ham and Egg
Slice the ham and pan-fry it over low heat until it's slightly crispy. Fry the egg to your preferred doneness-whether it's fully cooked or a little runny in the center. 

Step 4: Prepare the Rice
Heat the two packs of instant rice in the microwave as per the instructions. In a bowl, mix the rice with seasoned seaweed flakes to add a savory, umami-rich flavor. 

Step 5: Assemble the Rice Burger

• Use a small round container or bowl to shape the rice burger. 
• Start by adding a layer of rice at the bottom. 
• Place the cooked kimchi mixture on top, followed by the pickled radish slices, fried egg, ham, and seasoned leftover chicken. 
• Cover with another layer of rice and press it down firmly to hold everything together. 

Step 6: Enjoy Your Leftover Chicken Rice Burger!
Carefully remove the rice burger from the mold, wrap it in parchment paper, and take a bite into your flavorful Leftover Chicken Rice Burger!

Notes:

• Be cautious when using knives and heat to avoid cuts and burns. 
• If you don't have all the seasonings, you can simply mix the kimchi with a tiny bit of sugar for a balanced taste. 
• Meal Prep Idea: Make multiple Leftover Chicken Rice Burgers in advance and store them in the freezer. When you're ready to eat, simply microwave them for a quick and satisfying meal!
