Chicken Fried Rice

I’m always looking for ways to use up the leftover roast chicken in the fridge, and if you happen to have leftover rice – even better! This dish is definitely something you can easily throw together on a week night for dinner, and is great to take for lunch the following day.

  • 1 cup rice (2 cups water)
  • 2 cups diced, cooked chicken
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 4 carrots, diced and blanched in water for about 5 minutes
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  1. Prepare rice according to directions.
  2. When rice is done, warm sesame oil  in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, peas, and carrots, stirring so the garlic and onions don’t burn.
  3. Crack the eggs into the pan, scrambling with the vegetables.
  4. Add the rice, chicken, and soy sauce to the pan, stir well to combine. Remove from heat and serve.
