Chicken Fried Rice
- 1/4 cups Plain Vegetable Oil, Divided Use
- 1 whole Small Onion, Finely Chopped
- 3 cloves Finely Minced Garlic
- 1 piece (1 Inch Long) Ginger, Peeled And Finely Chopped
- 3 whole Scallions, Whites And Greens Separated
- 2 cups Pre Cooked Chicken, Shredded
- 1 cup Mixed Veggies (I Used 1/2 Sweet Corn And 1/2 Cup Frozen Peas)
- 3 whole Eggs, Slightly Beaten
- 2 cups Pre Cooked Rice
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet (cast iron works best) over high heat.
- When hot, add 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan.
- Add the onion and season with salt and pepper, cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the onions are fragrant and translucent.
- Add the garlic, ginger and scallion whites and stir fry until fragrant.
- Add the vegetables and chicken and cook until crisp, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer contents to a large bowl and return skillet to heat.
- Add 2 more tablespoons of oil, add the slightly beaten eggs and season with salt and pepper.
- Stir constantly until the eggs are almost set but still moist.
- Transfer eggs to the bowl with the chicken and veggies and again return skillet to heat.
- Add the remaining oil then toss the pre-cooked rice into the pan making sure to break up any clumps.
- Stir the rice making sure it is evenly coated with the oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Allow the rice to cook, undisturbed for about 2 minutes...allow it to get crispy.
- Stir the rice again, breaking up any new clumps and allow to sit for another 2 minutes.
- Toss in the scallion greens and remove from heat.
- Empty the large bowl back into the skillet and combine all ingredients well (hope you remembered to use a large skillet!
- ).
- Serve in bowls and garnish with a few dollops of hot chili sauce.
