1 cup uncooked glutinous white rice (sushi rice) |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
2 teaspoons sesame oil |
5 green onions, chopped |
3 cloves garlic, minced |
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cubed |
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, chopped |
1 tablespoon rice vinegar |
3 tablespoons soy sauce |
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
2 tablespoons cold water |
3/4 cup chopped unsalted dry-roasted peanuts |
