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 CHICKEN WITH BROCCOLI OR CAULIFLOWER



Stir-Fried Chicken with Broccoli or Cauliflower image

This is the model recipe for making stir-fried chicken with firm vegetables, those that must be parboiled before stir-frying. The extra step sometimes saves time and always helps you pinpoint doneness. But if you want to cook everything in one pan, cut the broccoli into small bits (1/2 inch or so) and start the recipe at Step 2. Serve with white or brown rice.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups white rice
Salt and pepper
1/2 head broccoli or cauliflower, cut into 1-inch slices
4 tablespoons good-quality peanut or vegetable oil
1 onion, diced
1 to 2 tablespoons grated or chopped fresh ginger
4 cloves garlic, chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
1 pound boneless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 1/2-to 3/4-inch chunks or thin slices and blotted dry
2 tablespoons soy sauce
4 scallions, white and light green parts only, chopped (about 1/2 cup), plus more for garnish
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock, white wine or water

Steps:

  • Add the rice to a small saucepan and rinse until the water is no longer cloudy. Add enough water to cover the rice by 1 inch and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer until "craters" form in the rice, about 10 minutes. Lower the heat all the way and cover until ready to serve.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt it and cook the broccoli until it just loses its rawness, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain, then run under cold water to stop the cooking. Chop into bite-size pieces.
  • Put a large skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil, swirl it around and immediately add the onions, ginger and garlic and cook until the onion begins to brown and the garlic is fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove the onion mixture to a plate. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan, then add the broccoli in an even layer and cook until it begins to brown, tossing occasionally, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the broccoli to the plate with the onion mixture.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan, then add the chicken. Raise the heat to high, stir the chicken once, and let it sit for 1 minute before stirring again. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the chicken has lost its pink color, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Return the vegetables to the pan and toss once or twice. Add the soy sauce and scallions and toss again. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then add the stock and cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan, until the liquid is reduced slightly and you've scraped up all the bits of chicken, about 30 seconds. Garnish with more scallions and serve over the rice.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: Day-old rice is less moist and sticky, which will help prevent the stir-fried rice from becoming mushy.
  • Cook the rice properly: Make sure the rice is cooked through but not overcooked. Overcooked rice will be too soft and mushy for stir-fried rice.
  • Use a large wok or skillet: A large wok or skillet will help you spread out the rice and other ingredients evenly, which will help them cook evenly.
  • Heat the wok or skillet over high heat: High heat will help create a nice sear on the rice and vegetables and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Add the ingredients in the correct order: Vegetables should be added first, followed by the rice and meat. This will help ensure that the vegetables are cooked through and the rice is not overcooked.
  • Season the stir-fried rice to taste: Add soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or ginger powder.

Conclusion:

Broccoli and chicken stir-fried rice is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice and vegetables. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and healthy stir-fried rice that your whole family will enjoy.
