Quick Chicken Fried Rice Delight in 30 Minutes
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
- 1 cup cooked chicken, diced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, and corn)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- to taste salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon sriracha or chili sauce (optional)
- 3 green onions, sliced
Instructions
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the beaten eggs and scramble them until fully cooked. Remove the eggs from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add a little more oil if needed, and stir-fry the diced chicken until it’s heated through (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add the mixed vegetables to the pan and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
- Add the cooked jasmine rice and break up any clumps with a spatula. Stir well to combine the rice with the chicken and vegetables.
- Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, mixing everything uniformly. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Finally, add the scrambled eggs back to the pan along with the sliced green onions. Stir to incorporate all ingredients and heat through for an additional minute.
- If desired, drizzle with sriracha or chili sauce for an added kick.
