Best 5 Ginger Edamame Rice Recipes

SPICY GARLIC GINGER EDAMAME

Steps:

• Edamame can be made on the stovetop or in the microwave.
• To boil edamame: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a teaspoon of salt. Add the edamame and return to a boil. Cook until bright green and heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain.
• To microwave edamame: Place the edamame in a microwave-safe dish with 1/4 cup of water and a pinch of salt. Partially cover the dish with a plate, and then microwave on high until bright green and heated through. Depending on your microwave, this can take 1 to 5 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger. Cook until fragrant, but before they brown, 30 to 60 seconds. Remove the skillet from the heat, and then stir in the soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame oil, and chili sauce.
• Taste and adjust with additional maple syrup to balance out the soy sauce or more chili sauce to make it spicier.
• Toss the edamame with the sauce and serve.

CHICKEN, EDAMAME & GINGER PILAF

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan, then add the onion, ginger and chilli, along with some seasoning. Cook for 5 mins, then add the chicken and rice. Cook for 2 mins more, then add the stock and bring to the boil. Turn the heat to low, cover and cook for 8-10 mins until the rice is just cooked. During the final 3 mins of cooking, add the edamame beans. Sprinkle some coriander leaves on top and serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt, if you like.

MISO COD WITH EDAMAME RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Place the cod fillets on a foil-lined baking sheet. Stir the miso, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, the honey and ginger in a small bowl until smooth. Rub the cod all over with about 2 tablespoons of the sauce. Arrange flat-side down and spread the remaining sauce over the top of the fillets.
• Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Return to a boil, then stir and reduce the heat to medium low. Add the carrots on top of the rice, cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle the edamame on top, cover and let stand, 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, broil the cod until the sauce is browned and the fish flakes easily with a fork, 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the thickness.
• Fluff the rice to mix in the carrots and edamame. Add half the scallions and sesame seeds and the remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil and stir to combine; season with salt and pepper. Divide the rice among plates. Top with the cod and sprinkle with the remaining scallions and sesame seeds.

GINGER EDAMAME RICE

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water and put over medium-high heat. Add the white whole scallion pieces, the ginger, garlic and a healthy pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, and cook about 5 minutes to infuse the water with the flavors.
• Carefully add the rice to the boiling water, stir, and simmer the rice until cooked through but firm, about 15 minutes. During the last few minutes of cooking, add the edamame to the simmering water.
• Meanwhile, slice the scallion greens and reserve. Drain the rice in a colander; remove the scallions, ginger and garlic, and discard. Transfer to a serving bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add 3/4 of the scallion greens and stir with a fork to fluff the rice and combine the ingredients.
• Garnish the rice with the remaining scallions and serve immediately.

CHICKEN, EDAMAME, AND NOODLE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook noodles until al dente, according to package instructions. Drain, and rinse under cold water; drain again, and set aside.
• While pasta is cooking, in a medium bowl, toss chicken with cornstarch; season with salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Cook chicken in two batches, until light brown on the outside and opaque throughout, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate (reserve skillet).
• Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet; add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 1 to 3 minutes. Add cabbage, and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Add edamame, vinegar, soy sauce, chicken, and noodles; season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing, until noodles and edamame are warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes.
