Ingredients

3 tbls vegetable oil

1 tbls unsalted butter

1 1/2 cups long-grain rice

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1/2 cup dry white wine (a couple of glugs)

4 1/2 cups chicken stock or broth

Zest and juice of 1 lemon

2 large handfuls snow peas, thinly sliced across the width

2 pounds chicken tenders, cut into bite-size pieces

1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

1 large onion, sliced

3 large garlic cloves, chopped

3-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated

3 tbls honey

1 tbls cornstarch

5 scallions, thinly sliced

Directions

Heat a medium saucepan or pot over medium-high heat

Add 1 tbls of the vegetable oil and the butter to the pot.

Once the butter melts, add the rice, season with salt and pepper, and lightly brown the rice for 3 to 5 minutes.

Add the wine and allow it to evaporate entirely, 1 to 2 minutes.

Add the chicken stock and the lemon zest to the rice.

Bring the liquid to a boil.

Cover and reduce the heat.

Cook the rice for 18 to 20 minutes, or until tender.

Once the rice only has about 3 more minutes of cook time, remove the lid and add the sliced snow peas. *Don't stir the rice; just add the snow peas on top and put the lid on.* They should still have some crunch to them.

While the rice is cooking, preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 2 tbls of vegetable oil.

Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and brown for about 3 minutes.

Add the red pepper flakes, onions, garlic, ginger, and honey.

Stir frequently and continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the onions are tender.

Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of chicken stock to the pan and bring up to a simmer.

Once at a simmer, combine the cornstarch with a splash of water, and mix to create a thin paste.

Add the cornstarch mixture to the simmering chicken, mix thoroughly, and continue to cook for 2 minutes, or until the liquid is thickened.

Add the sliced scallions and the lemon juice to the chicken and stir to combine.

Serve the honey chicken over the snow pea rice.
