Directions

• Place rinsed and drained brown rice in a medium pot with 3 cups of water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and let simmer, covered, until water is evaporated and rice is tender.* Cook chicken breasts. Cut pineapple into bite size pieces.  Peel and grate carrots, slice celery; chop onion. Meanwhile, heat butter in a very large pan over medium heat. Add the onions and grated carrots to the pan, and fry until translucent and tender, about ten minutes. Add the celery, and fry a few minutes more, until its bright green and tender-crisp. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil and juice from one orange. Add the cooked rice to the frying pan along with the cooked chicken, pineapple, peas and sauce. Toss the fried rice to coat it with the sauce, then taste and adjust seasonings. Top with cashews. Serve with chopped cilantro as a garnish, and Sriracha sauce for grownups (or kids!!) who like it hot.
