Ingredients
Scale
- 3/4 cup jasmine rice
- 2 green onions
- 1/3 cup sugar snap peas
- 1 cup diced fresh pineapple
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
- 1 lb chicken tenders
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp cashews
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1/4 cup red onion, diced
Instructions
- Before starting, preheat your broiler to high. Wash and dry all produce. Bring 1 1/4 cups water to a boil in a covered medium pot. Add rice to the pot of boiling water. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
- While the rice cooks, thinly slice the green onions. Trim the peas. Cut pineapple into 1/2-inch pieces. Whisk together the hoisin-soy, cornstarch and sweet chili sauce in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, then arrange chicken on a foil-lined baking sheet. Toss with 1 tbsp oil. Season with salt and pepper. Broil in the middle of the oven, until cooked through, 8-10 min.
- While the chicken broils, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the cashews to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown 2-3 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don’t burn!) Transfer to a plate.
- Add sesame oil, then the peas, red onions and pineapple to the same pan. Cook, stirring often until tender-crisp, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. When the chicken is cooked through, add to the pan with the veggies. Add the sauce from the medium bowl and bring up to a boil. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 1-2 min. Remove from heat.
- Fluff the rice with a fork, then season with salt. Stir in the green onions. Divide rice between bowls. Top with the chicken and pineapple stir-fry. Drizzle over any remaining sauce left in the pan. Sprinkle over the cashews.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
