Honey Chicken Over Snow Pea Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 teaspoons sesame oil and the honey together in a medium bowl. Add the chicken, toss and marinate 20 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade using a slotted spoon. Heat 2 teaspoons canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in 2 batches, turning once or twice, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes (add 2 more teaspoons canola oil between batches). Transfer the chicken to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
• Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons canola oil in the skillet. Add the scallions, reserving some of the green parts for topping. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Whisk the broth, sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, chili paste and the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce in a bowl; add to the skillet and cook, stirring, until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil.
• Meanwhile, cook the snow peas in a steamer basket set over a few inches of boiling water until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Return the chicken to the skillet with the sauce and heat through. Serve the chicken and snow peas over brown rice, if desired. Top with the sesame seeds and reserved scallion greens.

Steps:

• Heat a medium saucepan over med-high heat; add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and the butter to the pot.
• When the butter is melted, add in the rice; season with salt and pepper, lightly brown the rice for 3-4 minutes, stirring often.
• Add in the wine and allow it to evaporate entirely, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add in 3 cups chicken broth and the lemon zest; bring liquid to a boil; cover and lower heat.
• Cook the rice for 18 -20 minutes or until tender.
• Once the rice has only about 3 more minutes of cook time, remove the lid and add the sliced snow peas (don't stir the rice; just add the snow peas on top and put the lid on.
• The steam will lightly cook the snow peas.
• Once cooked, fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the snow peas; they should have some crunch to them.
• While the rice is cooking, preheat a large skillet over med-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil.
• Add in the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and brown for 3 minutes.
• Add in the red pepper flakes, onions, garlic, ginger, and honey.
• Stir frequently and continue to cook 3-4 minutes, or until the onions are tender.
• Add the remaining 1 ½ cups chicken broth; bring to a simmer.
• Once at a simmer, combine the cornstarch with a splash of water and mix to create a thin paste.
• Add the cornstarch mixture to the simmering chicken, mix thoroughly and continue to cook for 2 minutes or until the liquid is thickened.
• Add the sliced scallions and lemon juice to the chicken and stir.
• Serve the honey chicken over the snow pea rice.

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat and then swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the egg and swirl the skillet to make a flat egg pancake that's only half set, about 10 seconds. Scoop onto a plate with a large, perforated spoon or spatula.
• Add the chicken to the skillet, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil, then add the snow peas, ginger, soy sauce and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly, until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the rice, stirring to break up any clumps, and spread it out evenly in the skillet. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Return the egg, chicken and any juices to the skillet and cook, stirring and breaking up the egg to mix it in thoroughly, about 1 minute. Season with additional salt if needed. Add the peanuts and scallions and serve.
