Chicken Fried Rice
You will need-:
- 1 cup of rice, cooked and allowed to cool
- Frylight
- 1 chicken breast or equivalent, chopped to small bitesize pieces
- good handful of frozen peas
- soy sauce
- 2 eggs, whisked
Spray Frylight into a wok, add chicken and allow to cook for a few mins. Then throw in your frozen peas and continue to cook stirring regularly until the chicken is cooked. Transfer from wok once cooked to a bowl until you are ready to continue your fried rice.
When you are ready heat the pan again adding some Frylight and add your whisked eggs. Mix until they turn into sloppy scrambled egg and then add your cold rice stirring thoroughly to mix the egg well through the rice once you are reasonably happy this is done re-add your chicken and peas and mix some more (you can always add another egg if it does not seem as though there is enough) just before serving add a good splash of soy and mix this gives the fried rice the darker colour
