Herby Seedy Rice w/ Tamari Pork

I was flipping through Ali Slagle’s book and realized I had this rice dish bookmarked but hadn’t tried it yet. I love how Ali writes recipes; so unfussy, mostly vegetarian and easy to add your own protein to. As a break from chicken, I used pork, but either will work. If you have big eaters or want leftovers, double the pork and use your largest skillet. Some air-fried cubes of salmon would be delicious as well.

This is an easy weeknight dinner that will hold up as leftovers! I tried to keep this one quick, but I’ve been making that TikTok thinly sliced cucumber salad in a jar and that was great on top!

You can’t quite tell in the photo but I used long grain brown rice which worked great. I imagine brown rice would take just a few more minutes than white rice in that first boil.
