Step 1

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes. Combine the chilled rice, cooked diced chicken, white onions, diced carrots, beaten eggs, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic butter, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well to combine.

Step 2

Transfer the rice mixture to the air fryer basket and spread it out in a single layer. If necessary, you can cook the rice in batches to avoid overcrowding the basket. Cook the fried rice in the air fryer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

Once the fried rice is golden brown and crispy on the outside, remove it from the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. If desired, serve the Benihana Chicken Fried Rice hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
