Hoisin Chicken with Bok Choy & Wild Rice
1
Cook wild rice according to package directions in unsalted water.
2
Start preparing the chicken when the rice has 20 minutes left to cook. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium high heat. Slice the chicken thighs into 1 inch (2.5 cm) strips. Add chicken thighs to oil and brown on one side, about 5 minutes. Whisk together hoisin sauce, lime juice, ketchup, garlic, ground ginger and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Pour sauce over chicken. Flip pieces and move around to coat well with sauce. Simmer an additional 5 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
3
Add thinly sliced baby bok choy, cover, and cook until greens are tender.
4
Serve skillet chicken and sauce over cooked wild rice. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes: This is an easy dark meat skillet casserole.
