Simple To Make And Very Healthy Pineapple Brown Rice Food

PINEAPPLE FRIED BROWN RICE

Steps:

• Place rinsed and drained brown rice in a medium pot with 3 cups of water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and let simmer, covered, until water is evaporated and rice is tender.*
• Cook chicken breasts.
• Cut pineapple into bite size pieces. Peel and grate carrots, slice celery; chop onion.
• Meanwhile, heat butter in a very large pan over medium heat. Add the onions and grated carrots to the pan, and fry until translucent and tender, about ten minutes.
• Add the celery, and fry a few minutes more, until it's bright green and tender-crisp.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil and juice from one orange.
• Add the cooked rice to the frying pan along with the cooked chicken, pineapple, peas and sauce. Toss the fried rice to coat it with the sauce, then taste and adjust seasonings. Top with cashews.
• Serve with chopped cilantro as a garnish, and Sriracha sauce for grownups (or kids!!) who like it hot.

PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE

Steps:

• If serving rice in fresh pineapple, halve the pineapple lengthwise, leaving the leafy top intact and cutting through it. Hollow out each half, reserving 1 cup of the fruit for the rice and extra for garnishing. Save remaining pineapple for another use. Make a small slice on the outside of each half to create a flat base to hold the pineapple steady. Set aside.
• Crumble the cold rice between your fingers to separate the grains, and set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a wok or large skillet, swirling to coat the pan. Add the onion and toss until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and toss until fragrant and soft, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the ginger and toss for another minute.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil, then add the rice. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes over high heat, then add the beans, tomatoes, and pineapple, and fry 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the fish sauce and sugar, and toss until ingredients are well combined and rice is heated thoroughly, about 5 minutes. Add the green onions and toss to combine. Remove from the heat and transfer to a serving platter, or if using fresh pineapple, fill each half of prepared pineapple with warm rice and garnish with extra chunks of pineapple.
