Description

Healthy homemade, better than take out! Easy to adjust with ingredients you have on hand.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 3 Tablespoons Soy Sauce Plus 1/4 Teaspoon For The Eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
  • 1 Tablespoon Rice Wine Vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoons Sesame Oil
  • 1 whole Onion, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Ginger, Grated
  • 1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Cut Into Bite Size
  • 1 whole Carrot, Julienned
  • 1 whole Celery Rib, Finely Chopped
  • ¾ cups Frozen Peas, Thawed
  • 2 cups Cooked Rice

Preparation

Whisk your eggs with 1/4 teaspoon of soy sauce. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan, add your eggs to your pan and move around to cover the bottom of the pan and let cook until set. Do not stir eggs; when ready/cooked, fold omelet, remove from pan and set aside.

In a small bowl mix your remaining soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil; set aside.

In the same pan, heat another tablespoon of olive oil, add your onions and ginger. Cook gently for 1 minute, add your chicken and stir often; cook until no longer pink, about 5–10 minutes. Add your vegetables, cook for 3 minutes, then add your rice. Stir everything to combine. Cook for 2-3 minutes until rice is hot, then add your eggs. Add your soy mixture and toss everything well to cover all ingredients. Cook for 1–2 minutes and serve.

Note: if you happen to have a wok, then you are one step ahead of the game!

You could also top the rice with fresh green onions thinly sliced. Very pretty!

This was delicious and simple. I substituted the carrot for orange pepper and used spinach instead of peas and it was divine. Thanks!

This was really good, I’m not sure I loved the rice vinegar in it, I may try using 1/2tbsp, I left out the peas & used dry ginger b/c thats all I had on hand. Other than that we really liked it!

This was a first time ever foray into chicken fried rice. It was easy (if a little labor intensive) & went over well w/ the kids. Hubby added hot sauce to his, so I’m gonna rethink the spices a little, I think.
