Dinner during the week gets so crazy sometimes…with school, work, a baby, and now extra curricular activities for my nearly 4 year old, there isn’t much time left to cook. Once a week we are left ordering pizza or some various takeout because we simply don’t have the time or energy to make a decent meal. However, being a vegetarian, take out options are limited. I love Chinese food, but most fast food Chinese places don’t have many veggie options other than noodles or rice; and recently while I was at Panda Express, I saw a new dish called Firecracker Chicken, and I knew I wanted to recreate it with tofu. That said, the recipe can easily be adjusted to use chicken instead of tofu if that’s what you are into.
While this dish comes together in under 30 minutes, which is fast for a weeknight meal, I also didn’t want to get stuck waiting forever on rice to cook. That’s why I picked up some Success® Whole Grain Brown Rice.
Success® Rice is the original no measure, no mess boil-in-bag rice that cooks perfectly every time and is ready in just 10 minutes. A true pantry staple, Success® Boil-In-Bag Rice is convenient, and can be made on the stovetop or microwave without sacrificing its great taste or quality. This makes cooking the rice so easy, and I can just let it cook while I get the other food all together and made. You can even let the rice sit in the water after it’s been cooked for up to 30 minutes (with the heat off), to ensure it stays warm! So convenient.
This dish turned out so delicious- with chunks of sweet pineapple covered in a spicy sweet sauce, and crispy tofu…yum. I am definitely adding this to our regular rotation of dinners. It also reheats great and is even good cold (hey, when you have a newborn, sometimes you don’t have time to even microwave!). I love that it’s so easy to recreate take out food, because you actually know what is going into your food and it’s way healthier than the alternative.
