Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large egg, beaten
2 boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Kosher salt
1 cup shredded carrots
1 tablespoon Asian sweet chili sauce
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon soy sauce
3 cups cold cooked long grain white rice
1 to 1 1/2 teaspoon Asian chili oil
2 tablespoons roasted salted cashews

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat and then swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the egg and swirl the skillet to make a flat egg pancake that's only half set, about 10 seconds; scoop out onto a plate.
  • Add the chicken to the skillet, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining tablespoon oil, then add the carrots, sweet chili sauce, ginger, soy sauce and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly, until the carrots are crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the rice, stirring to break up any clumps, and spread it out in the skillet. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Return the egg, chicken and any juices to the skillet and cook, stirring and breaking up the egg, to mix it in thoroughly, about 1 minute. Season with additional salt if needed. Stir in the chili oil, sprinkle with the cashews and serve.

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 2h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 skinless boneless chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup Jamaican jerk sauce, such as Food Network Kitchen Inspirations Jamaican Style Jerk Cooking Sauce
2 cups raw white rice
3 1/2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup Jamaican jerk sauce, such as Food Network Kitchen Inspirations Jamaican Style Jerk Cooking Sauce
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, grated on a rasp
2 sprigs fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Four 1/2-inch-thick red onion slices, rings intact
1 cup Jamaican jerk sauce, such as Food Network Kitchen Inspirations Jamaican Style Jerk Cooking Sauce

Steps:

  • For the marinade: Place a chicken thigh on a cutting board, cover with plastic wrap, and gently pound to even out the thickness. Sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides and place in a bowl or resealable bag. Repeat with remaining thighs. Add the Jamaican jerk sauce and mix to coat the chicken evenly. Let marinate at room temperature for 2 hours.
  • For the rice: Add the rice, chicken stock, Jamaican jerk sauce, red pepper flakes, garlic, thyme, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper to a rice cooker. Cook rice according to rice cooker instructions.
  • For the skewers: Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread 2 skewers on either edge of a chicken thigh, then add an onion followed by another thigh (so the chicken and onions lay flat, not stacked). Repeat with remaining chicken and onions. Place skewers on grill pan and cook 5 minutes, then flip, brush with Jamaican jerk sauce and dome with a large metal bowl. Cook on second side until chicken is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to a plate to cool slightly before removing skewers.
  • To serve: Chop the onions. Fluff rice and stir in onions and chopped parsley. Serve with chicken.

SWEET AND SPICY CHICKEN FRIED RICE

This is a quick and easy lunch or light dinner. Have all of your vegetables etc cut up before you start. This dish comes together very quickly. I like to cook my rice the night before and let it cool. This is not necessary, but makes this dish even quicker.
