Roasted Vegetables In Orange Teriyaki Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 cups cooked brown rice (Perfect Brown Rice is a good one!)
Teriyaki Sauce
1/2 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup orange juice
1 orange, zest of
2 scallions, chopped finely
2 tablespoons mirin
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Vegetables
1 1/2 lbs broccoli, stems cut crosswise into 1/2 inch slices, remainder in florets
8 ounces carrots, cut into 1/4 inch rounds
10 ounces large white mushrooms, sliced 1/2 inch thick

Preparation

Cook brown rice.
Prepare vegetables: Cut broccoli stems into 1/4 inch rounds; cut tops into florets; peel carrots and cut into 1/4 inch rounds; slice mushroom into 1/2 inch slices. Put the broccoli stems and carrots in one bowl and the florets and mushrooms in another.
Mix up the teriyaki sauce: Combine all the teriyaki ingredients into a large cup and whisk.
Lightly oil a large roasting pan (about 12X17 size). I use a cookie sheet.
Pour about 1/2 the teriyaki sauce onto the bowl of broccoli stems and carrots and toss. Pour them onto the roasting pan and roast at 400F for 15 minutes. (If your baking rice at the same time, 350F will be fine).
After 15 minutes, remove from oven. Pour the remaining teriyaki sauce over the florets and mushrooms and add them to the roasting pan, mixing all the veggies together. Return to oven and roast for 15 more minutes or until the broccoli is crisp-tender and lightly browned on the edges. Stir occasionally.
Spoon the rice into individual bowls and top with the vegetables and teriyaki.
