Chicken Sausage Hearts of Palm Fried Rice

Hearts of palm rice, vegetables, and egg make a quick fried-rice-style skillet meal.
Servings: 2 servings
Course: Main Course
Calories: 405

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz sweet Italian chicken sausage
  • 1 box hearts of palm rice (9 oz / 255 g), drained
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp tamari
  • 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1/2 tbsp fried rice seasoning

Method
 

  1. Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it into small pieces. If it is raw chicken sausage, cook to 165°F.
  2. Turn the heat to medium. Add the drained hearts of palm rice, vegetables, tamari, sesame oil, and seasoning. Stir for 3–4 minutes so excess moisture can evaporate.
  3. Move the mixture to one side and scramble the egg on the clear side until set. Fold everything together and heat through.

Tips for this recipe

  • Prepare the measured ingredients before heating the pan or assembling the dish. Follow the written order so ingredients are ready when they are needed.
  • When scaling the recipe, increase ingredients together but keep the same doneness checks. A larger batch does not necessarily cook in the same time.

Serving suggestions

Serve after the resting or finishing step. Pair with vegetables and a starch if desired, and count sides separately unless they are included in the ingredients.

Storage and make-ahead

Refrigerate perishable portions in shallow, covered containers within 2 hours, or within 1 hour above 90°F. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below and use cooked leftovers within 3–4 days. If reheating cooked leftovers, heat them to 165°F throughout.

Food-safety reference: USDA leftover-storage guidance.

Common questions

Should I weigh ingredients before or after cooking?

Use the stage written next to each ingredient. Raw, cooked, drained, and dry weights are different; keep that distinction when measuring a portion or using the nutrition estimate.

What are the calories and macros per serving?

One serving provides an estimated 405 calories, 25.4 g protein, 14.4 g total carbohydrate, 26.7 g fat and 4.7 g fiber. One serving is 1/2 of the finished recipe.
