Place chicken in saute pan with sesame seeed oil and saute until chicken picks up color and begins to crisp around the edges. Add soy sauce, cook for an additional minute and then remove from heat. Set aside. As for the stock, you should have about 7 cups: if less, add water; if more, cook longer after adding rice.) Return stock to cleaned pot and add rice. Bring to a boil and stir. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered until consistency of oatmeal, about 1 1/4 hours, stirring frequently during last 1/2 hour of cooking. (Congee will continue to thicken as it stands. thin with water if necessary.) Season congee with soy sauce. Laddle into bowls and serve, topped with chicken and chopped scallions.
