Ingredients
2 large eggs, slightly beaten
3 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 tbsp Sesame oil (or vegetable oil)
1 small yellow onion, chopped
1 c. frozen peas and carrots thawed
2 tsp minced garlic
1 (18 oz.) bottle of Teriyaki sauce
4 tbsp soy sauce ( I use low sodium soy sauce)
3 c. cooked white rice day old/ cold rice is best
How to make Chicken Fried Rice
Step 1: In a crockpot, place the chicken and cover it with teriyaki sauce. Set to cook for 3 hours on high. Alternately, you can bake for about 35 minutes at 375 degrees F. Into small pieces, slice the chicken once cooked and set aside.
Step 2: In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the peas/carrots mix, onion, and garlic to the skillet/wok. Stir fry until tender. Then, adjust the heat to medium-low. To one side of the wok, push the veggie mixture. On the other side, pour the eggs and stir fry until scrambled.
Step 3: Add the rice along with the soy sauce and mix well. Add the cooked chicken, stir, and continue to cook until heated through.
Step 4: Remove from the heat when done and serve the chicken fried rice immediately. Enjoy!
