Peanut Rice

We love stir fry recipes at our house.  They are a quick and easy go-to dinner that can be thrown together quickly.  (Anyone else out there with a toddler who needs to eat NOW?)

Peanut Rice

This peanut rice is very similar to my peanut butter stir fry recipe.  I just LOVE the peanut sauce that gets tossed in with that stir fry recipe so I decided to make a similar recipe using rice.  Peanut RiceThe sauce used in this dish starts with chicken broth and soy sauce but has peanut butter and honey mixed in for sweetness.  The garlic and ginger give the sauce an extra boost of flavor to make this sauce perfect.  Once the sauce is made, you just toss it with the rice and vegetables and you have a delicious side dish or meal!
