Hoisin Sesame Carrots Recipes

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in skillet on medium-high heat; add carrots, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, juice (or water) and ginger root. Reduce heat, cover and cook at a simmer and stir until carrots are crisp-tender (depends how small your carrot slices are).
• Stir in the honey. Stir in well and cook until heated through.
• Top with the sesame seeds. Season with pepper and salt, if needed.

Steps:

• Toast the sesame seeds in a large dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small dish and set aside.
• To the same skillet, add the carrots, hoisin, butter, a pinch of salt, a few grinds of pepper and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Lower the heat to medium, cover and cook until the carrots are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes.
• Uncover the skillet and raise the heat to medium-high. Simmer until the liquid has reduced to a glaze, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper. Serve sprinkled with the toasted sesame seeds and chives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and put in the oven to heat.
• Spread the carrots in a single layer on the hot baking sheet. Combine the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of honey in small bowl and pour over the carrots. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Roast the carrots start until they start to blister, 10 minutes.
• Mix together the remaining 1 tablespoon honey and the soy sauce. Drizzle the mixture over the hot carrots and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and chopped parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 450 degrees F. Put the chicken on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet; drizzle with 1 teaspoon sesame oil, sprinkle with the five-spice powder and toss. Arrange skin-side up; season with salt and pepper. Roast until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crisp, 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir the hoisin sauce, brown sugar and remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a small bowl. Grate 1 garlic clove into the sauce; set aside. Chop the remaining garlic. Trim the broccolini and slice lengthwise into long florets. Trim and scrub the carrots; halve or quarter lengthwise.
• Preheat the broiler. Brush half the hoisin sauce mixture on the chicken and broil until bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes. Brush with the remaining sauce and broil 1 to 2 more minutes.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccolini, carrots and chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is soft, 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water, cover and cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Uncover and stir in the sesame seeds.
• Divide the chicken among plates; top with the scallion. Serve with the vegetables.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the uncooked rice, and cook until toasted, stirring occasionally. Pour in the water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes, or until tender.
• While the rice is cooking, mix together the hoisin sauce, barbeque sauce, peanut butter, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Set aside.
• When the rice is done cooking, heat the sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. When it begins to smoke, add the onion and fry until clear. Add the carrot, and cook for about 1 minute, then add the rice, and stir fry for about 2 minutes. Add the broccoli and peas; cook and stir for about 1 minute. Push everything to the sides of the wok, and crack the eggs into the center. Scramble until cooked through, trying to keep the raw egg from mixing with everything else. When the eggs are cooked, stir them in with the rice.
• Turn off the heat, and stir in about half of the sauce, tasting and adding more as desired. You may not need all of the sauce, but if you serve this with a meat it makes a good sauce for that too. Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
