Chicken Fried Rice


Chicken Fried Rice

Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts, about 2 oz. each
1/2 can of sweet peas (or less, up to you!)
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups of cooked white rice (preferably jasmine or basmati rice)
3 Tbsp of soy sauce or to taste (enough to cover all the rice)
1 egg, scrambled
1 carrot, peeled and finely chopped (optional)
1/4 green pepper, chopped (optional)

Start by cooking the chicken breasts in a pan. Cook about 5 minutes on each side or until brown. It does not have to cook all the way. Remove from pan but leave pan heated with the oil and chicken drippings. Add chopped onions and minced garlic to the pan. While doing that, cut the chicken breasts in bite sized pieces. Saute onions and garlic for about 2 minutes, then add the chicken back to the pan. Cook together for about 3 minutes, then gradually add the rice by dropping a spoonful at a time. Once all the rice is in the pan, combine all ingredients together and add the cup of soy sauce gradually. Next, add the peas, carrots, and green pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, then add the scrambled egg by pouring it into the rice. Mix well until the egg is completely scrambled. Then it is done! Enjoy! :)
