Dijon Rice With Broccoli Food

DIJON RICE WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Steam broccoli or, if frozen, microwave as directed.
• Meanwhile, whisk 2 teaspoons of Dijon mustard, low-sodium soy sauce and hot sauce together.
• Taste, adding more hot sauce and Dijon mustard if needed. (Chef Lindsay Nixon says she usually adds up to 1 1/2 teaspoons of hot sauce and 3 to 4 teaspoons of Dijon.) If the Dijon is too strong for your liking, add a few drops of agave nectar or a pinch of sugar to help cut the bite.
• Mix with cooked rice (if using leftover rice, add a splash of broth or water before reheating it).
• Then mix in cooked broccoli, season with salt and pepper, and serve.

DIJON-BAKED CHICKEN WITH RICE AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• The night before: Unravel thighs to flatten and scrunch together in a large shallow oven-safe pan. Combine the following in a small mixing bowl in this order: spices, honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and hot chili sauce. Stir. Pour evenly over chicken. Flip the chicken around with a fork until each piece is well coated. End by making sure the rough side of the thigh is down. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine rice and water in a larger oven-safe pot. Stir. Cover and place in preheated oven.
• Turn chicken over with a fork. Place in preheated oven, beside rice. Set timer for 50 minutes. About halfway through the cooking time for chicken, I like to flip the chicken over again. When the timer rings for chicken, turn off heat but leave it in the oven.
• Rinse broccoli in colander. Place in a microwave-safe pot or casserole dish with lid. Cover, then microwave at high for 5 minutes. When timer rings, add seasoning mix to broccoli.
