Chicken Fried Rice
Chicken Fried Rice is not only a fun meal, but it is done in a flash!
To begin, dice two boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 3/4 inch pieces. Dice 1/2 cup onion.
Measure out a cup of frozen mixed vegetables.
In a large, non-stick skillet, heat a tablespoon of coconut oil over medium high heat. Toss in the onion & chicken and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in the vegetables and cover. Cook until the chicken is just cooked through, 2-3 more minutes.
While it cooks, beat an egg.
When the chicken is just cooked through, add in 3 cups of cooked, cold rice and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Cook and stir until it is all fairly uniform in color with the soy sauce mixed into the rice. Cook for 2 minutes, until the rice gets a little bit of color here and there.
Move the fried rice to the sides, clearing a space in the center of the skillet. Add a teaspoon of coconut oil in the cleared space.
Pour in the beaten egg. Stir and cook until the egg is scrambled and cooked through.
Once the egg is cooked, mix it into the fried rice.
That’s it! Serve with additional soy sauce if you like.
Enjoy!
