Apricot Balsamic Glazed Chicken

• Melt 1 TBSP butter in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add ginger, scallion whites, and half the garlic (all for 4 servings); cook until softened, 1-2 minutes. • Stir in rice, half the stock concentrate (you’ll use the rest later) and 3⁄4 cup water (11⁄2 cups for 4). Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

• Pat pork* dry with paper towels; season all over with salt, pepper, and 1 tsp Fry Seasoning (2 tsp for 4 servings; we sent more). • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 15-20 minutes. • Turn off heat; transfer to a cutting board to rest. Wash out pan.

Swap in chicken* or beef* for pork. Cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side, or cook beef to desired doneness, 4-7 minutes per side.

• Melt 1 TBSP butter in same pan over medium-high heat. Add minced shallot and cook until softened, 2-3 minutes. • Stir in jam and vinegar; simmer until syrupy, 30-60 seconds. • Stir in 1⁄4 cup water (1⁄2 cup for 4 servings), remaining stock concentrate, and 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4). Bring to a boil, then lower heat; simmer until thickened, 3-4 minutes. • Remove from heat. Stir in 1 TBSP butter until melted. Season with salt and pepper.

• Pierce green bean bag with a fork; place bag on a plate. Microwave until tender, 1-2 minutes. TIP: No microwave? No problem! Steam beans in a small pot with a splash of water until just tender, 5-7 minutes. • Carefully transfer green beans to a medium bowl. Toss with sesame oil and season with salt and pepper.
