  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Bring a small pot with basmati rice, 1 cup water, half the seasoning blend (reserve remaining for squash), and a pinch of salt to a boil.

    Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 14-17 minutes.

    Remove from burner and set aside.

    While rice cooks, prepare ingredients.

    Coarsely chop peanuts.

    Stem and coarsely chop cilantro.

    Start the Squash

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.
