leftover rice recipe

Chicken fried rice is the comfort dish of Chinese food. This classic take on the favorite is easy to make and makes the perfect lunch or dinner. 

Chicken Fried Rice

olive oil

chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 lb.)

Kosher salt

black pepper

onion,

carrots,

garlic,

tbsp. ginger

c. cooked white rice (preferably leftover)

c. frozen peas

eggs,

tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce

green onions, thinly sliced

I grilled the chicken in advance and used a tiny dash of five spice powder and also some white pepper to jazz up the flavor. This also goes well with leftover pork tenderloin or steak in place of the chicken. Try to use sticky rice from a rice cooker and keep the mixing in the wok to avoid adhesion to the pan. A very delicious dish for all seasons 🙃

I love chicken fried rice and this was a great recipe to finally try and make it at home. Very easy and quick to make and everyone loved it and said was better than what we get at the restaurant.
I think next time I will add some pineapple and red pepper flakes to kick up the heat. Thanks for the great video and yes you definitely need a bigger pan.:-)

Really, really good. I used some leftover turkey I had from Christmas that was sitting in the freezer instead of chicken, plus I added some bell peppers and mushrooms for extra veggies. I knew that all the ingredients wouldn’t fit in a pan, so I made it in a large pot. Will be making this again!

I just made two batches of this to share with both my daughters’ families.  It was a huge hit.   So fresh and tasty.  Definitely will make it again with shrimp.   Thank you.

5 stars, I make the recipe and it came out delish!!

This was great! I made free and easy with which veggies I used, but I think that it would work with any combination. It is definitely going to become my fall back fried rice recipe!

Very bland even after adding more soy sauce. Calls for way too much rice. Had to do half of that.

Whenever we go to Asian Restaurants my husband orders fried rice dishes.  Not sure why it took me so long to try it at home.  We're minimizing our grocery trips so I used some high quality canned chicken I get at Costco, skipped the peas, and unfortunately had to use ginger powder but still it turned out great.  The directions are very clear and it tasted just as we expected.  I can see lots of options for substitutions which will make this a nice dish in our rotation.

Easy, quick and delicious! I had thawed a pork chop and used that instead of chicken.  Will make this again - my best recommendation.

Awesome recipe...5 Stars! This is a favorite of my three children and I alway make sure to have all ingredients on hand at all times! One of my favorite go to meals when I’m in a pinch! Thank you!!

I halved it because there is just the two of us.  It was delicious!

YUM!! This was soooo good & lots of leftovers for lunch tomorrow!

I loved this recipe so much, I took tortilla shells, filled it with the chicken fried rice, rolled it up enchilada style and put it in a baking dish. Poured a can of cream of chicken soup over it, then baked it for 35 minutes at 350. It was perfect! And the leftover enchiladas were put into baggies with a spoonful of the gravy over them and frozen. Easy to reheat as needed. Since I live alone, making a meal for four leaves plenty of leftovers. These are great!

Anyone else cringe at the size of that pan? LoL
