Instructions

Wash produce before use

1

Heat the rice

Choose your heating method:

Our chefs think this cooks best in the microwave (for microwave option, heat just before serving while preparing Step 4).

  • Microwave oven  | 3–5 minutes

Transfer the rice to a microwave-safe dish and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] water. Place a damp paper towel over the top of the dish and microwave for 3 to 5 minutes, or until heated through. 

 

  • Conventional oven  |  15 minutes

Heat the oven to 425°F. Transfer the rice to an ovenproof dish and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] water. Cover with foil and bake for about 15 minutes, or until heated through. 

2

Prep the vegetables

  • Thinly slice the mushrooms.
  • Trim the root ends from the scallions. Cut the white parts crosswise into 1-inch pieces; thinly slice the green parts on the diagonal, keeping the white and green parts separate.
  • Remove the stem ends from the shishito peppers, if desired. Wash your hands after handling. 

3

Cook your protein

Steak or pork strips, diced chicken, or plant-based chicken: 

  • Cut a small corner from the packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper. 

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add your protein and cook until lightly browned and just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes for steak, pork, or plant-based chicken, 6 to 8 minutes for chicken. 

 

Shrimp:

  • Rinse and drain the shrimp. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper. 

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the shrimp and cook turning once, until firm and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side for jumbo shrimp. 

 

Tofu:

  • Pat the tofu dry with paper towels and cut it into ½-inch cubes. Season with salt and pepper. 

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. 

4

Finish the chop suey

To the pan with your protein, add the white parts of the scallions, mushrooms, shishito peppers, and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the chop suey sauce and cook until your protein and the sauce are heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, season to taste with salt and pepper, and stir in the green parts of the scallions. 

Serve

Transfer the rice to individual plates, top with the chop suey, and serve.
