I searched for a candied ginger recipe online, but found mostly recipes on how to make candied ginger. So, I created my own! We really enjoyed this. I served it with gluten free chicken sausages made by Full Circle. They contain no MSG or nitrates which is very hard to find in a sausage. They have many other advantages, as well. I’ll see if I can get them to sponsor a giveaway. Meanwhile this rice and candied ginger recipe was wonderful. It’s not hot on the tongue, just a kick in the back of your throat. Enjoy if you like spicy food!

Yield: 2 Servings

Tired of the same of rice? Try this spicy and flavorful recipe with white or brown rice.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup instant brown rice (or white)
  • 1 cup gluten-free low-sodium chicken broth (I use O Organics) (or use vegetable broth if vegan or vegetarian)
  • 1/4 cup yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced
  • 14 small leaves fresh basil, about 1 Tablespoon, minced (or 1 teaspoon dried basil)
  • 1/2" cube of candied ginger, minced (or more if you like it really hot and spicy)
  • 2 teaspoons oil (I used extra virgin olive oil)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat small sauce pan with oil on medium heat.
  2. Add onion and saute until tender and translucent.
  3. Add garlic and basil and cook for about 30-60 seconds.
  4. Add broth and bring to a boil.
  5. Add rice and cook using manufacturers instructions.

Tips

If you use regular rice versus instant just cut the amount of rice in half and double the broth, or adjust the broth according to the instructions for water on the package.
