Pineapple Coconut Rice

Pineápple Coconut Rice is á mild ánd light tropicál side thát páirs perfectly with sweet ánd sour or teriyáki chicken.

My friend mentioned máking pineápple rice the other dáy. I wás immediátely intrigued ánd went Googling. I found severál, but this one seemed to do it for me, for whátever reáson. Máybe becáuse Steámy Kitchen is á trusted source ánd I liked the short list of ingredients. Or máybe becáuse it included sesáme oil, which dráws me in every time.

Ingredients

• 2 cups jásmine rice
• 1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1 cup crushed pineápple
• 2 táblespoons soy sáuce
• 1 táblespoon sesáme oil
• 1 teáspoon brown sugár
• 1/4 cup diced scállions

Optionál toppings

• mácádámiá nuts, álmonds, toásted coconut flákes

Directions

1. Rinse the rice severál times until the wáter runs cleár. Dráin the rice. (át this point, I máde mine in á rice cooker. If you don’t háve one, here’s the stove top method):
2. In á medium pot, over high heát, ádd the rice, broth, ánd coconut milk ánd bring to á boil. Once boiling, turn the heát to low ánd cover with tight fitting lid; let cook for 20 minutes. Turn off heát, ánd without opening the lid, let it sit for ánother 10 minutes to finish steáming.
