Here is what you'll need:
1 cup long-grain brown rice
2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
1/2 cup shredded carrot
1/3 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup dry-roasted peanuts, divided
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
4 teaspoons canola oil
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
Cook rice according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Transfer rice to a large bowl; fluff with a fork. Cool.
Shred the carrot.
Chop the chives, peanuts and cilantro.
Squeeze lime.
Chop garlic.
Combine juice and remaining ingredients in a small bowl.
Boil chicken, transfer to cutting board and chop.
Add chicken, carrot, onions, 2 tablespoons peanuts, 2 teaspoons cilantro, and salt to rice; toss to combine.
Whisk oil & juice mixture and pour over rice mixture.
This was good. It reminded me of fried rice, only healthier.
