Chicken Fried Rice

Ah, chicken fried rice...the best Asian dish ever! This is a super easy dinner that is super tasty. You just gotta try it!

Chicken Fried Rice

2 TBS oil

1 cup cooked chicken, diced
1/2 cup frozen or raw veggies
1 cup cooked brown rice, chilled
soy sauce
garlic powder
onion powder
salt and pepper

Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, then the veggies, then the rice. Make sure your heat is high enough to make steam rise from the dish, but not so high that it chars the veggies.

I like to use easy freezer rice that I made ahead of time and froze in portioned freezer bags. Just defrost in the fridge or microwave before you add it to the pan.

Add soy sauce, garlic, onion, salt, and pepper to taste and allow to fry until heated through and enough moisture has evaporated out. You don't want it to be mushy.

Serve immediately. Garnish with sliced green onion if you like, and serve with hot green tea.
