- Put the canola oil into a medium sized skillet (or possibly wok).
- Saute/fry the onions till they are limp.
- Add in the mushrooms and saute/fry till they give up their juice.
- Remove the vegetables and reserve.
- Put the chicken and it's spices in the skillet, being careful to drain most of the liquid and cook till it it cooked through and slightly browned.
- Add in the zucchini and cilantro, and stir fry 3 min.
- Add in the rice, the reserved vegetables and sufficient of the chicken stock to keep the rice from sticking.
- Cook only briefly to allow everything to heat through.
- Add in the almonds and serve immediately.
- Note: This is a dish I often make when I have leftover rice, and I very often use up different cooked vegetables in this dish.
- With cooked vegetables, simply cut them into small cubes, or possibly julienne and add in them just early sufficient so which they will be well heated.
- Try not to use vegetables which will become mushy with the heating, you will want them to still be tender-crisp.
- We often use carrots, broccoli, even spinach.
- If you are having Denise Bradshaw over to dinner, throw in a few peas.
