Coconut Almond Rice

Sides, Almonds

Yield: 8 Servings
Prep Time: 10 Mins.
Cook Time: 20 Mins.

Ingredients

13.5 ounces light coconut milk
1 1/2 cup long grain white rice
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup Fisher® Chef’s Naturals Sliced Almonds
1 tablespoon olive oil
6 ounces snow peas, strings removed, cut into thin strips

Directions

Combine coconut milk with enough water to yield 3-cups of liquid. Place liquid into a medium saucepan with salt and bring to a boil. Stir in rice, reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed.
Meanwhile, toast coconut in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes; set aside. Toast almonds following same directions as for coconut.
Heat oil in the skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add snow pea strips and sauté until crisp tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir snow peas, almonds and coconut into rice using a fork. Serve immediately.
