Chicken Fried Rice - going back to the basics here with one of our family's favorite one dish meal. The ever so versatile fried rice that is simple to make and can be served as a complete meal. You can make this dish with any meat ingredient (chicken, beef, pork, shrimps etc), vegetables, eggs and seasoning. I usually make chicken fried rice and my kids love it. A wonderful make in advance meal or week night dinner option.
​
Leftover rice is generally used because the moisture in freshly cooked rice will often cause it to steam instead of fry. And that will cause the entire dish to be mushy and sticky. What I'd do is to cook the rice and leave it out to cool for a couple of hours or over night before frying it. That way, the rice will be dry and grainy - resulting in a perfectly light and fluffy fried rice.
