Add a photoThis is a simple recipe that I make frequently to serve alongside any meal where I might otherwise serve regular rice. It ads flavor, color, texture, and a little more health to the dish! I give it five hearts for a great combination of versatility, simplicity and taste. I adapted this from a recipe in Cooking Light...one of my favorite cooking magazines. I normally at least double this recipe.
Ингредиенты
- 1 cup long-grain white or brown rice (Jasmine and Basmati are my favorite long-grain rices, but plain long-grain rice works fine too)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup fresh or thawed whole kernel corn
- 1/2 cup chopped zucchini (or yellow or summer squash)
- 1/2 cup halved grape tomatoes
- 1/3 cup chopped green onions
- Add kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Инструкции
- Cook 1 cup long-grain white rice according to stove or rice cooker directions.
- Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the fresh or thawed whole kernel corn and chopped zucchini to the pan, and saute 3-5 minutes or until vegetables are charred. (watch out for jumping corn kernels!)
- Stir in the halved grape tomatoes and the chopped green onions, saute 1-2 minutes or until tomatoes almost wilt.
- Add the cooked rice to the pan and saute, adding kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. After 1-2 minutes of stirring, put in a bowl and serve
- (Can be made up to 1-2 hours in advance of serving. Just reheat slightly on the stove before serving.)
