Orange "Chicken" Rice for Potluck Today

Orange "Chicken" and Rice

2 1/4 cups brown rice, dry (Uncle Ben's?)

2 1/2 cups water

2 cups Light colored TVP

2 1/2 cups hot water

2 Tablespoon oil

1 cup cashews (raw is best!)

1/2 cup shredded coconut

Sauce

1 cup orange marmalade

1/2 teaspoon ginger

1/3 cup water

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 T chicken-style seasoning

Put rice and water in a covered pot and bring to a boil, then lower temperature to low-medium. Leaving covered, cook for another 20-25 minutes or until steam lessens significantly and rice is soft. 

Mix TVP and water and allow to set until moisture is soaked up.

While rice is cooking, "fry" cashews in oil until they brown slightly. Add TVP and coconut and stir well. Set aside.

Mix sauce ingredients thoroughly. 

Combine all ingredients and serve warm.

Blessings!
