KFC rice—also known as devil cooked rice,[1] devil's takikomi gohan (Japanese: 悪魔の炊き込みご飯, romanizedAkuma no takikomi gohan), Kentucky takikomi gohan (Japanese: ケンタッキー炊き込みご飯, romanizedKentakkii takikomi gohan),[2] and KFC takikomi gohan (Japanese: KFC炊き込みご飯, romanizedKFC takikomi gohan)[3]—is a variation of takikomi gohan using fried chicken. It is prepared in a rice cooker. The rice is often mixed with chicken stock and soy sauce before adding the fried chicken. Per its name, the fried chicken used is typically the Original Recipe chicken sold by the American fast food chain KFC, though the dish can be made with any other type of fried chicken. The dish originated in Japan, where KFC is notably popular.
