Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil divided
- 16 ounces shiitake mushrooms stems removed and sliced
- 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 big pinch red pepper flakes + more to taste
- 3 cups cooked whole grain wild rice blend (from 1 cup uncooked)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1 small bunch kale large stems removed and chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a large wok (or skillet) melt 2 tablespoons of the coconut oil over high heat. Cook the mushrooms until nicely browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a clean plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil to the pan and stir in the ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes just until fragant, about 30 to 60 seconds. Stir in the cooked rice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and honey until the rice is heated through.
- Move the rice mixture over to one side of the pan and stir in the beaten eggs until cooked all the way through, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the cooked mushrooms back into the rice mixture. Stir in the chopped kale, just until wilted, about 2 to 3 mintues. Season with salt and additional pepper (if desired), and serve warm.
