Lemon Ginger Chicken And Green Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Season chicken with salt, pepper, and zest. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large straight-sided skillet on high; add chicken and cook 4 minutes. Flip; add garlic, 1 teaspoon ginger, beans, and 1/3 cup water. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer until chicken is just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Coarsely chop cilantro.
• Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add a pinch of salt and couscous; remove from heat, cover, and let stand 5 minutes. Cut cucumbers into 1/2-inch pieces and tomatoes into 1/2-inch wedges. Toss both with 1/4 cup cilantro and remaining 1 teaspoon ginger and 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Fluff couscous with a fork; stir in remaining 1/4 cup cilantro. Slice chicken; serve, with beans, cucumber salad, couscous, and lemon.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and fill a large bowl with ice water. Working in two batches, boil beans until just tender but still crisp and bright green. Start testing after 4 minutes or so, being careful not to overcook. When done, plunge beans into ice water to stop cooking, lift out immediately when cool and drain on towels. (Recipe can be made to this point up to a day in advance and kept refrigerated, wrapped in towels.)
• When ready to cook, heat 2 tablespoons oil in a wide skillet over high heat. Add half the beans, half the ginger and half the garlic, and cook, stirring and tossing constantly, until beans are heated through and ginger and garlic are softened and aromatic. Sprinkle with salt, and remove to a serving dish. Repeat with remaining oil, beans, ginger and garlic. Serve.

Steps:

• Pat chicken dry with paper towels; toss with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and cornstarch. Combine broth, lemon zest and juice, sugar, sesame oil, ginger, and 1 teaspoon salt; stir until sugar dissolves. In a large skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium-high, heat 1/4 cup safflower oil until shimmering. Add beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until they blister in places, 3 minutes. Transfer to paper towels with a slotted spoon; sprinkle with salt.
• Add 1/4 cup safflower oil to skillet; heat 1 minute. Add chicken; cook, stirring once, 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels; discard oil. Add broth mixture. Simmer, scraping up browned bits with a spatula, 1 minute. Return chicken and beans to skillet. Simmer until sauce thickens and coats chicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve over rice.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat and stir-fry the chicken for 5 mins. Add the green beans and stir-fry for 4-5 mins more until the green beans are just tender, and the chicken is just cooked through.
• Stir in the fresh ginger and garlic, and stir-fry for 2 mins, then add the stem ginger and syrup, the cornflour mix, soy sauce and vinegar. Stir-fry for 1 min, then toss in the noodles. Cook until everything is hot and the sauce coats the noodles. Drizzle with more soy, if you like, and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium-high heat. Add the ginger, garlic and onion, and stir-fry for about 5 mins or until lightly golden. Add the fish sauce, sugar, chicken and stock. Cover and cook over a medium heat for 15 mins.
• For the final 3 mins of cooking, add the green beans. Remove from the heat and stir through half of the coriander. Serve with steamed rice and the remaining coriander scattered over.
