Hot Honey Rice
Sweet heat and crispy rice in the same pan. Butter, garlic, hot honey, a little soy sauce, and a fried egg on top that you break right before the first bite. It sounds simple because it is. That's the whole point.

Serves 2
Instructions
- 01
Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 cups cooked (Not So) Boring rice and press into a flat layer. Don't touch it for 5 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy.
- 02
Push rice to the side. Add minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and fresh thyme or rosemary to the empty side of the pan. Let sizzle 30 seconds, then pour in 3 tablespoons hot honey and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Stir together and let bubble.
- 03
Fold the hot honey butter through the crispy rice. Press back into a flat layer and cook another 2 minutes until glossy and slightly sticky.
- 04
Slide rice onto a plate crispy-side up. Top with 2 crispy fried eggs, a pinch of flaky sea salt, and a drizzle of extra hot honey. The egg yolk break is your money shot.
- 05
Drizzle cold hot honey onto hot rice right before serving — it steams and glistens.
