Pour in abalone sauce, sesame oil, and water. Bring to a boil on high heat, then reduce to medium-low. Cover and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until rice fully absorbs the sauce and becomes slightly moist and thick like braised rice. Abalone sauce mixed with 12-hour slow-cooked chicken broth. Rice grains absorb it completely — resulting in fresh and addictive flavor!
Finally, place abalones on top. Cover and heat 1 minute to warm. Sprinkle chopped green onion. Done!
