Coconut Rice with Chicken & Snow Peas

Servings:four.

This stir-fry is a great way to use extraroast chickenthat you’ve cooked in advance, but store-bought rotisserie chicken is another option for the meat. The rich coconut rice is the perfect counterpoint to the soy-jalapeño sauce. For color, add some red bell pepper to the stir-fry.

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups jasmine rice or long-grain white rice
  • 3 Tbs. minced fresh ginger
  • 1/4 canola oil
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk (preferably not “lite”)
  • 3 Tbs. soy sauce
  • 2 Tbs. rice vinegar
  • 1 Tbs。浅棕色的糖
  • 2 tsp. cornstarch
  • 2 large green or red jalapeños, cored, seeded, and finely diced
  • 1/2 lb. snow peas (about 3 cups)
  • 2-1/2 to 3 cups diced leftover roast chicken (preferably dark meat)
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Preparation

  • Rinse the rice in three changes of cold water, or until the water becomes only slightly cloudy from the rice. Drain well in a sieve.
  • Heat 1-1/2 Tbs. of the ginger with 2 Tbs. of the oil in a small (2-qt.) saucepan over medium-high heat until it begins to sizzle steadily and becomes fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, until the grains and ginger start to brown in places, about 2 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk, 1-3/4 cups water, and the salt. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Cook until the liquid has reduced to about the same level as the top of the rice, 5 to 7 minutes. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook without disturbing the rice until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and cornstarch in a small bowl .Stir in 1/2 cup water and set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the jalapeños and the remaining 1-1/2 Tbs. ginger in the remaining 2 Tbs. oil until they sizzle steadily for about 30 seconds. Add the snow peas and cook until bright green and browned in places, about 1 minute. Whisk the soy mixture to recombine and add it and the chicken to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens and the chicken just heats through, about 2 minutes. Stir in half of the cilantro, reduce the heat to low, and cook for another 2 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve with the chicken and snow peas, sprinkled with the remaining cilantro.
