Description

This hearty vegetarian dish is a fun twist on the usual takeout version of fried rice, incorporating lots of nutty flavor from toasted sesame oil, roasted cashews, peanut butter, and sesame seeds. The rice is drizzled with a savory, creamy peanut sauce that takes the whole thing right into indulgence territory. If you have a peanut allergy, opt for cashew, almond, or sunflower butter instead of peanut butter. Look for toasted sesame seeds on the spice aisle of your supermarket; it’s a great ingredient to keep on hand for busy nights because it saves a step.

Directions

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add broccoli and mushrooms; cook 6 minutes. Remove broccoli mixture from pan (do not wipe out pan). Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to pan. Add rice and cashews; cook 5 minutes. Stir in eggs; cook 1 minute. Stir in broccoli mixture, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and pepper. Combine remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, peanut butter, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon water in a bowl. Top rice mixture with peanut butter mixture and sesame seeds.
