Ingredients

3 3/4 cups water
2 oranges, zested
2 cups jasmine rice, rinsed
2 tablespoons canola or safflower oil, 2 turns of the pan
1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pounds chicken breast tenders, 2 packages, sliced on an angle into bite-size pieces
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 medium yellow skinned onion, sliced
1 red bell pepper, seeded, quartered and sliced
1 cup shredded carrots, store bought, or 2 medium carrots cut into matchsticks
6 scallions, cut on an angle into 2 inch pieces
1 cup snow peas, a couple of handfuls

Satay sauce:

4 rounded tablespoonfuls chunky peanut butter
3 tablespoons dark soy, Tamari
3 tablespoons honey
1-inch ginger root, peeled and minced
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 orange, juiced

Garnish:

2 ounces (1/4 cup) chopped peanuts or nut topping, available on the baking aisle
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves or flat-leaf parsley, for garnish
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves

Directions

Heat water with orange zest to boiling. Add rice, return to boil, stir. Cover pot and reduce heat to simmer. Cook rice until tender, 18 minutes. Fluff with fork.

For stir-fry, heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add chicken, garlic and onion, stir-fry 3 minutes. Add remaining veggies and stir-fry 5 minutes more. Heat all ingredients for sauce together in a small pot over low heat, stirring the sauce until all ingredients are combined. Transfer stir-fry to a large platter and pour sauce evenly over the chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle the platter with chopped nuts, cilantro, and basil. Serve jasmine rice in a separate dish with an ice cream scoop to serve the rice with -- it makes perfect, pretty, round portions of rice on the dinner plates.

Delicious Sauce
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

The sauce and orange scented rice were very flavorful and delicious! Only thing I would change is to double the sauce and... use less red pepper flakes (I found one teaspoon of red pepper flakes to be a little too hot).Read more

sauce is yummy.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made the sauce and garnish to go with my veggie stir fry with edamame, snow peas, red peppers, carrots, scallions and... broccoli. It's got a little spice, a little sweet and a little tang - the prefect balance, but a little thick... I added some water at the end and whisked it all togther.Read more

Very Tasty But Too Peanut Buttery!!!!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This dish was very simple and quick to make, but the sauce was too thick so I added water and coconut milk. And it was way... too peanut buttery so next time I will use less peanut butter. But despite the sauce my family really enjoyed it!Read more

yummy sauce!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I really liked the sauce for this dish, but i thought it was a little thick to be a stir fry sauce. i would have liked it... much more as a dipping sauce. i think the fresh ginger really made it. i didnt use all the vegetables that were suggested. i just used a bag of frozen stir fry vegetables and added in scallions. per other people's suggestion i doubled the sauce recipe. it was very tastey on top of the stir fry but next time i'd try to thin it out. thick peanutty sauce over rice/veggies/chicken can be a little much. all in all though it was very good.

So so
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I was really looking forward to making this, and I have to admit, I was disappointed! I expected the sauce to taste more... peanutty--but the soy sauce was the main flavor. If I try this again, I would tweak the sauce by adding more peanut butter and less soy sauce. Read more
