Cooking InstructionsHide images

step 1

Cook White Rice (1 cup) in a rice cooker. If you do not have one, heat 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and add the rice. Give it a quick stir and cover the pan with a lid.

step 2

Cook for 18-25 minutes, or until the water has evaporated and the rice is tender. Once done, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork.

step 3

Heat Olive Oil (1 Tbsp) in a large skillet over high heat. Season the Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts (2) with Salt (to taste) and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) and add to the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, turning frequently.

step 4

Once the chicken is cooked through, transfer it to a bowl. Turn the heat down to medium-high and add Olive Oil (1 Tbsp). Add the Asparagus (1 bunch), cooking for 3 minutes, tossing occasionally.

step 5

Add the Shallot (1) and Lemongrass (1 stalk) cook for 1 minute. Then add the Fresh Ginger (1 Tbsp) and Garlic (3 cloves) – cook for another minute, stirring frequently.

step 6

Add the Soy Sauce (1 Tbsp), Rice Vinegar (1/2 Tbsp), and Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (1/8 tsp). Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the chicken. Simmer for 1 minute to heat through.

step 7

Spoon the lemongrass chicken and asparagus over the rice and sprinkle some Cashew Nuts (1/4 cup) if desired.
