STICKY COCONUT CHICKEN AND RICE



Sticky Coconut Chicken and Rice image

This comforting one-pot chicken dish features fragrant coconut rice infused with aromatic ginger, garlic and scallion, and studded with toasty cashews. The cashews soften as the rice steams, adding subtle nuttiness to the dish. Chicken thighs absorb the coconut milk as they cook, which keeps the meat tender and juicy. Fresh chopped cilantro brightens the dish, while hot sauce adds nice heat and tang to balance the creamy, rich and slightly sweet rice.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, each thigh cut into 2 equal-size pieces
1/4 cup neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/2 cups short-grain white rice, rinsed until water runs clear
1 3/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (13.5-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded and chopped (½-inch pieces)
1/2 cup roasted cashews, coarsely chopped
3 scallions, green and white parts, thinly sliced (½ packed cup)
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped cilantro
Hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Rub chicken with 1 tablespoon of oil, and season with 1 teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of pepper.

RICE WITH ONIONS, GARLIC AND HERBS



Rice With Onions, Garlic and Herbs image

Make and share this Rice With Onions, Garlic and Herbs recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Midwest Maven

Categories     Long Grain Rice

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large onion, peeled and cut into chunks
10 garlic cloves, peeled
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/2 cup fresh basil leaf
3 tablespoons corn oil
2 cups long grain rice
salt and pepper, to taste
3 cups chicken stock

Steps:

  • Combine the first 4 ingredients in a food processor and puree.
  • Put the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and add the rice, stirring for a few minutes.
  • Stir in all but 1 tablespoon of the onion mixture, add the salt and pepper, and cook for a couple minutes stirring.
  • Add the stock and bring to a boil.
  • Cover and turn heat to medium/low cooking until liquid is absorbed, about 15-20 minutes.
  • Stir in the reserved tablespoon of the onion mixture and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality brown rice. This will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for a rice that is fresh and has a nutty flavor.
  • Rinse the rice before cooking. This will help to remove any dirt or debris. It will also help the rice to cook more evenly.
  • Use a large pot to cook the rice. This will give the rice plenty of room to expand. If you use a pot that is too small, the rice will be crowded and will not cook evenly.
  • Bring the water to a boil before adding the rice. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Reduce the heat to low and simmer the rice for 45-50 minutes. Do not stir the rice during this time. Stirring the rice will release starch and make the rice gummy.
  • Once the rice is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it stand for 5 minutes. This will allow the rice to finish absorbing the liquid.
  • Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. This will help to separate the grains of rice and make the rice light and fluffy.

Conclusion:

Brown rice with onions, garlic, and pecans is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. It is a good source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats. This dish is also relatively easy to make and can be prepared in under an hour. So next time you are looking for a healthy and delicious side dish, give this recipe a try.
