BROCCOLI AND CHICKEN STIR-FRIED RICE



Broccoli and Chicken Stir-Fried Rice image

This is adapted from Cooking Light, July 2007. I really think it is one of my favorite stir-fry recipes out there, It is also very flexible...I'm sure you could sub in other veggies for some of the broccoli, like water chestnuts or carrots or mushrooms. Let your imagination run wild :). The original recipe calls for 2 T reduced-sodium soy sauce plus 1/4 t table salt stirred in at the end, but I think it is salty enough as written here.

STIR-FRIED RICE STICK NOODLES WITH BOK CHOY AND CHERRY TOMATOES



Stir-Fried Rice Stick Noodles With Bok Choy and Cherry Tomatoes image

Rice noodles are delicate and light, and especially welcome to those who are gluten-intolerant. You might find it easier to use tongs for this once you've added the noodles to the pan. Bok choy is a member of the cabbage family and has all those antioxidant-rich phytonutrients that the brassicas are known for.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 35m

Yield Serves four to six

Number Of Ingredients 15

7 ounces thin rice stick noodles (1/2 of a 14-ounce package)
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
1 tablespoon soy sauce low-sodium if desired or wheat-free tamari
1 tablespoon Shao Hsing rice wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes or 1 to 2 teaspoons minced jalapeño
2 tablespoons peanut oil or canola oil
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 pound (2 medium) baby bok choy, trimmed, washed and dried, cut in 1-inch lengths
1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
Salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 cup coarsely chopped cilantro can include stems, plus additional sprigs for garnish
2 teaspoons sesame oil

Steps:

  • Place the noodles in a large bowl and cover with warm water. Soak for at least 20 minutes, until soft. Drain in a colander and, using kitchen scissors, cut into 6-inch lengths. Set aside within reach of your wok or pan. Combine the broth, soy sauce, and rice wine or sherry in a small bowl. Combine the garlic, ginger, and pepper flakes or minced jalapeño in another bowl. Have everything within reach of your wok or pan.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in 2 teaspoons of the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan. Make sure that the bottom of the wok or pan is coated with oil and add the eggs, swirling the pan so that the eggs form a thin pancake. Cook 30 seconds to a minute, until set. Using a spatula, turn the pancake over and cook for 5 to 10 more seconds, until thoroughly set, then transfer to a plate or cutting board. Season to taste. Allow to cool, then roll up and cut into strips 1/4 inch wide. Place near the wok.
  • Swirl the remaining oil into the wok or pan and add the garlic, ginger and chili. Stir-fry no more than 10 seconds, until fragrant, and add the bok choy. Stir-fry for 1 minute, until it is bright green and the leaves are wilted, and add the broth mixture, the drained noodles, and the tomatoes. Reduce the heat to medium and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes, until the noodles are just tender and the tomatoes are beginning to soften. Add the cilantro and egg shreds, and the salt and sugar, and stir-fry another 30 seconds to a minute, until well combined. Add the sesame oil, stir together, and serve, garnished with cilantro sprigs if desired.

STIR-FRIED WILD RICE WITH ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOMS



Stir-Fried Wild Rice With Asparagus and Mushrooms image

A wonderful combination of flavors. Serves 4 as an entree or 6 as a hearty side. Add grilled tofu chunks for more protein. If you can't afford shitake mushrooms, it would probably be good with creminis. Cooking time includes rice, which you can do ahead of time. I cooked the 2 different kinds of rice together in a rice cooker with lots of water for about an hour. Adapted from The One-Dish Vegetarian by Maria Robbins.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 dried mushrooms
1 1/2 cups warm water
1/2 cup leftover chicken and/or pork adobo meat, shredded (or shredded rotisserie chicken)
1 tablespoon red or white wine (optional)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
4-6 cloves garlic, minced
1 small to medium onion, cut into slivers

1/2 pound bihon (dry rice noodles) (see Note)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Dash freshly squeezed calamansi (or lime) juice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Soak the mushrooms in the warm water for at least 20 minutes. Drain the mushrooms, reserve the soaking liquid, and thinly slice the mushrooms. Combine the adobo and wine (if using) in a bowl.

STIR-FRIED BEAN SPROUTS WITH SPROUTED BROWN RICE



Stir-Fried Bean Sprouts With Sprouted Brown Rice image

Time 50m

Yield Serves three to four

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup sprouted brown rice, cooked 3 cups cooked rice

4 cups bean sprouts about 3/4 pound
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro (optional)

PAKISTANI BHAGAR WALAY CHAWAL (STIR FRIED RICE) OR ZANZIBARI PUL



Pakistani Bhagar Walay Chawal (Stir Fried Rice) or Zanzibari Pul image

Although this recipe has no major ingredient than rice. It has a very unique taste because of the garam masalas in it. I usually substitute it with plain white rice for meals when I am craving for something less bland. This is also a part of Zanzibari Pulao's recipe.

STIR FRIED RICE



Stir Fried Rice image

Simple to make and goes great with my other dishes, Egg Rolls and Sweet and Sour Chicken.

Provided by Terressa Kennedy

Categories     Other Appetizers

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 c uncooked rice, white or brown
2 c water
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 c frozen mixed peas and carrots
1 dash(es) ginger, or to taste
few dash(es) soy sauce, to taste
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 Tbsp vegetable oil

Steps:

  • 1. FIRST OFF: Wash rice in cool water to rinse the starch off. the water will run clear when you have done this. This keeps from having sticky rice to work with.
  • 2. Cook rice according to directions with the 2 cups of water. Once it's done, remove from heat and let it cool. It's best to refrigerate it over night but it's not necessary.
  • 3. When preparing the egg, use a little Pam in the bottom and sides of a 10 inch skillet, preferably teflon type. When skillet is hot, pour the egg into the center and "swirl" over the bottom and along the sides and cook for about 1 minute. It is done when the egg is solid and the edges are a tannish-brown and not burnt. slide fried egg out of skillet onto cutting board and let cool for a minute or two. Roll sheet of egg into a slightly tight log and cut into strips across log and then chop. set aside until time to add to rice.
  • 4. In WOK or large skillet, add about 2 TBSP of vegetable oil and heat to rippling heat. Add onion and stir while adding the peas and carrots. Stir until just tender; about 3 minutes and then add the rice. (If rice was refrigerated, you need to crumble it first thoroughly or you will have clumps in it. Break it loose with your hands into individual grains.)
  • 5. Stir rice together with vegetables, season with ginger and soy sauce to taste and coat well, but it should not be soggy with soy sauce. Add shredded egg and toss well to blend. Remove rice from stove and serve.

Tips:

  • Cook the rice a day ahead. The rice will have a better texture and will be less likely to stick together when you stir-fry it.
  • Use a wok or large skillet. This will help the rice to cook evenly and prevent it from sticking.
  • Heat the wok or skillet over high heat. This will help the rice to brown and create a nice crust.
  • Add the rice to the wok or skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes. Do not stir the rice too often, as this will prevent it from browning.
  • Add the vegetables and cook for 5-7 minutes. Stir-fry the vegetables until they are tender but still slightly crisp.
  • Add the eggs, sauce, and seasonings. Stir-fry until the eggs are cooked through and the sauce is evenly distributed.
  • Serve immediately. Stir-fried rice is best served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Stir-fried rice is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of practice, you can make delicious stir-fried rice at home.
