Chile Peanut Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Mix 2 cups cooked rice, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 cup chopped scallions, a 4-ounce can chopped green chiles (drained), 1 cup shredded cheddar, and salt and cayenne to taste. Butter a casserole dish and sprinkle with parmesan. Spread the rice mixture in the dish, sprinkle with more parmesan and dot with butter. Bake 20 minutes at 450 degrees.

Steps:

• Wash rice in several changes of water until water runs clear, then drain rice well in a sieve. Bring rice and 3 cups water to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan and cook, covered, over very low heat until water is absorbed and rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove pan from heat and let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Fluff rice gently with a fork.
• Heat oil in a deep 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook mustard seeds, stirring, until seeds begin to pop. Add ginger and 1/4 cup peanuts and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add turmeric, rice, and salt to taste, stirring to coat rice thoroughly. Remove skillet from heat and stir in lemon juice. Sprinkle with remaining peanuts and zest.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Stir together the sugar, chipotle powder, chili powder, and garlic powder in a small bowl; set aside.
• Stir together the butter, honey, and kosher salt in a large saucepan over medium heat until the butter has melted, and the mixture is bubbly. Stir in the peanuts until well coated, then pour out into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until the nuts are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Stir the mixture 2 or 3 times to ensure even cooking. Once done, scrape the peanuts into a large metal bowl, and sprinkle with the spice mixture. Toss the peanuts to evenly coat with the spice mixture. Allow the peanuts to cool to room temperature, tossing every few minutes so the nuts do not stick together.

Steps:

• Coat a nonstick pan with cooking spray; sauté chicken over medium-high heat until cooked through. Remove from pan. Add oil and sauté garlic and ginger until garlic is golden. Add vegetables; cook until tender. Return chicken to pan; stir-fry 3 minutes.
• For the sauce, whisk 1 1/2 tbsp hot (not boiling) tap water into peanut butter to blend. Add soy sauce, vinegar, and hot sauce and mix. Divide stir-fry and sauce onto 2 plates. Serve each over 3/4 cup brown rice.

Steps:

• Heat 2 Teaspoon of peanut oil in a wok, add half the egg mixture, swirl to make a thin omelette. Remove omelette from wok, roll up then cut into thin strips. Repeat process using another 2 teaspoons of oil and remaining egg.
• Heat the remaining oil in wok, stir fry onion, garlic and chili, until onion softens, add broccoli, mushrooms and carrot, stir fry 1 miunte.
• Add sauces, snow peas, green onion, chicken and rice, stir-fry until vegetables are just tender and the dish is hot, add omelette, toss gently.
• Serve immediately.
