Costco Yakitori Chicken Fried Rice Recipes

CHICKEN YAKITORI AND RICE

Steps:

• For the chicken yakitori and rice: Soak skewers in water.
• Gather ingredients.
• Place 2 cups chicken stock or broth in a saucepot, bring to boil, then add white rice and a pinch of salt. Cover and reduce heat to low, then cook 15 to 18 minutes to just tender. Fluff and leave pot covered.
• Heat a large cast-iron pan or large nonstick pan over medium-high to high heat with oil, 3 turns of the pan. Meanwhile, to a small pot add soy sauce or tamari, mirin, sake, brown sugar, grated garlic and grated ginger. Bring to a low boil and thicken a couple of minutes, then remove from heat and pour off about a third to serve; add a basting brush to pot with remainder.
• Meanwhile, cut the chicken and scallions into bite-sized pieces. Drain skewers and thread on chicken and scallions, packed firmly.
• Cook skewers in pan 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with sauce once you turn browned chicken and onions the first time. Reduce heat a bit if pan gets too smoky.
• Serve skewers on or next to white rice with Green Beans alongside.
• Gather ingredients.
• Bring a couple of inches of water to a boil in deep skillet. Cut green beans into thirds.
• Place toasted sesame in bowl of mortar and pestle. Add soy or mirin or sake and sugar. Grind into paste (but some whole sesame seeds are fine), 2 minutes.
• Cook green beans in boiling water about 4 minutes to tender-crisp (add salt to water if you're not using soy). Drain in strainer and run under cool water 1 minute; drain off excess water by leaving in strainer a few minutes.
• Crumble about 4 ounces of the tofu with fingertips. Toss beans with sesame and tofu and serve.
