Cooking Steps

Cook ginger rice
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Peel, then mince or grate 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) ginger. 
  • Heat a medium pot over medium.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then ginger and rice. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant. 
  • Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. 
  • Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep and make sauce mixture
2
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.
  • Cut celery crosswise into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Thinly slice green onions.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water and 1 tbsp chili-garlic sauce. (NOTE: Adjust chili-garlic sauce depending on how much heat you like!) 
Toast peanuts and cook veggies
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. Add peanuts to the dry pan. Toast for 4-5 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.) Transfer peanuts to a plate. 
  • Heat the same pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers and celery. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring often, until tender-crisp. 
  • Add garlic. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until fragrant. 
  • Transfer veggies to another plate. 
Prep and cook chicken
4
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into 1-inch pieces on a separate cutting board.
  • Add chicken and Cream Sauce Spice Blend to another medium bowl, then toss until all chicken pieces are fully coated.
  • Heat the same large non-stick pan over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Cook for 6-8 min, turning pieces occasionally, until golden and cooked through.**
Assemble stir-fry
5
  • Add veggies and sauce mixture to the pan with chicken. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly.
  • Remove the pan from heat.
  • Season with salt and pepper. 
Finish and serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in half the green onions.
  • Divide rice between plates. Top with stir-fry.
  • Sprinkle peanuts and remaining green onions over top.
