Ingredients

  • 4 tsp. sesame oil divided
  • 12 oz. pork shoulder trimmed & cut into 1/2-in. pieces (I used short ribs)
  • 2 tbsp. minced fresh garlic
  • 1 3/4 c. water divided
  • 2 tbsp. liquid aminos and substitute with lower-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 1 c. finely chopped onion
  • 2/3 c. sliced carrot
  • 1 c. Minute® 100% Whole Grain Brown Rice
  • 1 3/4 c. unsalted chicken stock
  • 1 c. frozen green peas
  • 1/4 c. thinly sliced green onions

Instructions

  1. Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat.    

  2. Add 2 tsp. sesame oil to pan. Add pork to pan; cook 5 minutes, turning to brown on all sides.

  3. Add garlic to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in onion, 1 c. water, liquid aminos & rice vinegar; bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 15-20 minutes or until liquid evaporates, stirring occasionally.

  4. Remove pork from pan; keep warm. Return pan to medium-high heat. Add remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil to pan; swirl to coat.

  5. Add carrot; sauté 3 minutes. Add rice; cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Stir in pork, remaining 3/4 cup water, and chicken stock; bring to a boil. 

  6. Cover, reduce heat, and cook 20 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Stir in peas; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with green onions.
