Prep Time 20 Mins

Other Time 10 Mins

Yield Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups long-grain rice

  • 1 1/4 pounds ground chicken

  • 2 scallions, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger

  • 2 tablespoons healthy oil

  • 1/2 pound snow peas, halved crosswise (3 cups)

  • 1 cup frozen shelled edamame, thawed

  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

How to Make It

Cook the rice according to the package directions.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the chicken, scallions, and ginger. Shape into 16 meatballs.

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the meatballs, turning, until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

Wipe out the skillet. Heat the remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add the peas and edamame. Cook, tossing, for 2 minutes. Return the meatballs to skillet.

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce and sugar. Add to the skillet and simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve over the rice.

Tip: To keep the ground chicken from sticking to your fingers, wet your hands before forming the meatballs.
