Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
  • A dab of butter optional
  • 10-12 oz cherry tomatoes – halved
  • 3-4 garlic cloves – minced
  • 8 oz button mushrooms – thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 bell pepper – finely diced
  • 2 tsp of Season with Spice’s Sweet Curry Powder or Sweet & Spicy
  • 4 cups cooked basmati brown rice or regular brown rice or long grain rice
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce
  • Sea salt to season
  • Large squeeze of lemon juice plus additional wedges for serving
  • Freshly chopped cilantro for garnish

Serve with (optional):

  • Shredded romaine lettuce
  • Dollop of Greek yogurt
  • Grilled chicken grilled salmon, or pan fried tofu

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add in butter (if using). Then add in the cherry tomatoes and cook over medium-high heat.
  • When tomatoes begin to soften, press down the tomatoes to release the juices. Add in minced garlic, and cook for another 5 minutes (or until tomatoes are cooked down).
  • Add in sliced mushrooms, stir, and cook for about 2 minutes. Add in the broth, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Add in bell pepper and Sweet Curry Powder, mix well, and cook for another minute.
  • Stir in the cooked rice, and sauté over high heat. Add in worcestershire sauce, and season with sea salt. Mix everything well. If the rice mixture gets too dry while cooking, add in a tablespoon of broth/water.
  • Squeeze in fresh lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasonings, if needed. Garnish with cilantro and serve with additional lemon wedges.

Notes

– Cooked rice that’s been refrigerated overnight works best. Take the rice out 15-20 minutes before cooking. Gently fluff to loosen the grains, so it’s easier to cook.
