Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- To a medium pot, add 1 cup (2 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/8 (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- To the boiling water, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- To an unlined baking sheet, add zucchini, half the Moo Shu Spice Blend and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Roast in the bottom of the oven for 10-12 min, stirring halfway through, until tender-crisp and golden.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add sesame seeds to the dry pan. Toast for 3-4 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer to a plate.
- Thinly slice mushrooms.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. On a clean cutting board, cut chicken into 1-inch pieces.
- To a shallow dish, add chicken, cornstarch and remaining Moo Shu Spice Blend. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Reheat the pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until softened and golden. Transfer to a plate.
- Reheat the pan over medium-high. Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until golden and cooked through.** (NOTE: If chicken browns too quickly, reduce heat to medium.)
- To the pan, add soy sauce mirin blend, apricot spread and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sauce has thickened lightly.
- Stir in mushrooms.
- Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in half the sesame seeds.
- Divide rice between bowls.
- Top with zucchini, chicken, mushrooms and any sauce from the pan.
- Sprinkle remaining sesame seeds over top.
