Chicken Fried Rice

If you’ve ever ordered takeout or had a nice time at a fancy Chinese restaurant – you’re definitely acquainted with Chicken fried rice. A hearty meal that’s crafted using juicy boneless chicken thighs, spices, sautéed vegetables, chillies, and garlic, our Chicken fried rice recipe is designed for anyone looking to have a good time. Some fried rice lovers prefer using pork, beef, and other animal ... proteins for fried rice. The cooking time will vary a bit depending on the type of meat you’re using. You cannot completely replicate the smoky flavour of Chinese chicken fried rice since they use a Chinese wok. But you can get very close using a cast-iron skillet. Make sure the rice is firm and not too mushy when cooking. Use a fork to fluff it up and cut the chicken to bite-sized pieces when making the recipe. If you’re adding eggs to your chicken fried rice recipe and they seem to stick, use a spatula to get them off. Take care not to overcook and when you’re frying the garlic, do it on high heat. When the rice is done, you can drizzle soy sauce and garnish with chopped green spring onions. If you’re trying to mimic restaurant-style chicken fried rice, you can use some broth to add flavour when cooking. Serve a bowl of chicken fried rice for your main course and pair it with soups and salads for a satisfying meal!
