Chicken Fried Rice With Bok Choy Recipes

STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH BOK CHOY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, and 3 tablespoons water. Slice chicken into thin strips. In a medium bowl, toss chicken with cornstarch until coated. In a large wok or skillet, heat oil, garlic, and ginger over medium-high until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chicken in a single layer, pressing against pan to sear. Cook, stirring, until lightly browned and just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Add bok choy and chile and cook, stirring, until bok choy slightly wilts, about 1 minute. Add soy sauce mixture and cook until sauce thickens slightly, 2 minutes. Serve over rice.

ORANGE-GLAZED ROAST CHICKEN WITH STIR-FRIED BABY BOK CHOY

Steps:

• For the roast chicken: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Finely grate the zest of 1 navel orange and reserve in a small bowl for the glaze. Thinly slice the navel and blood oranges into rounds, then scatter on the bottom of a Food Network 16-inch Hard-Anodized Nonstick Roaster. Top with the red onions, then pour in the chicken broth. Place the roasting rack on top.
• Add the butter, ginger, chile garlic sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to a small bowl and stir together to combine. Use your fingers to gently separate the skin from the breast and thigh meat of the chicken. Rub half of the butter mixture under the skin, then rub the remaining half all over the skin, making sure to coat both the breasts and thighs. Sprinkle the whole chicken generously with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with butcher's twine. Place the chicken on top of the roasting rack breast-side up, then tuck the wings under the body (this will prevent them from burning). Roast until the skin starts to crisp and turn golden brown, about 30 minutes.
• For the orange glaze: Meanwhile, add the orange juice, honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger chile garlic sauce and reserved orange zest to the 1.5-quart saucepan from a Food Network 10-piece Hard-Anodized Space-Saving Cookware Set and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until reduced slightly, 12 to 15 minutes. Slowly whisk in the cornstarch until smooth, then simmer until thickened to a glaze, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• After the chicken has roasted for 30 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Use a pastry brush to brush the glaze onto the chicken skin and continue to roast, brushing on the glaze every 15 minutes or so and adding a splash of chicken broth to the bottom of the pan if it starts to get dry, until the skin is deep golden brown and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F, 45 to 60 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board to rest 10 minutes.
• For the stir-fried baby bok choy: Heat the sesame oil in the 10-inch skillet from a Food Network 10-piece Hard-Anodized Space-Saving Cookware Set over medium-high heat. Add the sugar snaps and cook, tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add the bok choy, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are bright green and tender, about 2 minutes more. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt if needed.
• Transfer the oranges and red onions from the roasting pan to a serving platter. Carve the chicken and place on top. Serve with the stir-fried baby bok choy and any leftover glaze on the side.

STIR-FRIED RICE STICK NOODLES WITH BOK CHOY AND CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Place the noodles in a large bowl and cover with warm water. Soak for at least 20 minutes, until soft. Drain in a colander and, using kitchen scissors, cut into 6-inch lengths. Set aside within reach of your wok or pan. Combine the broth, soy sauce, and rice wine or sherry in a small bowl. Combine the garlic, ginger, and pepper flakes or minced jalapeño in another bowl. Have everything within reach of your wok or pan.
• Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in 2 teaspoons of the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan. Make sure that the bottom of the wok or pan is coated with oil and add the eggs, swirling the pan so that the eggs form a thin pancake. Cook 30 seconds to a minute, until set. Using a spatula, turn the pancake over and cook for 5 to 10 more seconds, until thoroughly set, then transfer to a plate or cutting board. Season to taste. Allow to cool, then roll up and cut into strips 1/4 inch wide. Place near the wok.
• Swirl the remaining oil into the wok or pan and add the garlic, ginger and chili. Stir-fry no more than 10 seconds, until fragrant, and add the bok choy. Stir-fry for 1 minute, until it is bright green and the leaves are wilted, and add the broth mixture, the drained noodles, and the tomatoes. Reduce the heat to medium and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes, until the noodles are just tender and the tomatoes are beginning to soften. Add the cilantro and egg shreds, and the salt and sugar, and stir-fry another 30 seconds to a minute, until well combined. Add the sesame oil, stir together, and serve, garnished with cilantro sprigs if desired.
