Ingredients
- 1 cup long grain white rice
- 2 cups water
- pinch salt
- 1 recipe BBQ sauce Asian
- 1 package turkey meatballs Butterball brand, frozen
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion diced
- 1 small zucchini diced
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- soy sauce to taste, I used about 3 tablespoons
- black pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup peas frozen
- sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Start by making the rice: pour rice, water and salt into a small pot. Cover, bring to boil, then reduce to simmer. Cook 20 minutes or until rice is completely cooked.
- While rice is cooking, pour meatballs and Asian BBQ sauce into a deep skillet. Heat over a medium flame until meatballs are defrosted and hot, stirring as you go. Cover to keep warm and reduce heat to low.
- To finish the rice, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Saute onions and zucchini for 2 minutes or until they start to soften slightly. Stir in rice. Push the rice to the side of the pan. Scramble the egg on the other side of the pan and stir into the rice. Stir in sesame oil, soy sauce, pepper and peas. After cooking another 2 minutes, the rice should be ready.
- Serve hot meatballs and sauce over rice.
