Ingredients<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 large eggs<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 pound chicken thighs, boneless, skinless, and trimmed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 tablespoons extra light olive oil, or high heat cooking oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12 ounces frozen peas and carrots, fully thawed<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 c. cooked white rice, chilled<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 1\/2 teaspoons sesame oil, or to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/4 c. green onion, chopped<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 tablespoons soy sauce, (or GF Tamari) or added to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 teaspoon sea salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/4 teaspoon black pepper<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make Chicken Fried Rice<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Start by trimming the excess fat from the chicken. Into bite-size pieces, cut the chicken thighs. Place the pieces of chicken in a bowl and sprinkle with half tsp salt and 1\/4 tsp black pepper. Whisk 4 eggs in another bowl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Drizzle 1 tablespoon of oil in a hot large non-stick skillet or work over medium\/high heat. Then, add the chicken and sear for about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until the chicken is completely cooked. To a plate, transfer the chicken when done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3: Adjust the heat to medium and add 1 tbsp oil to the now-empty wok. Scramble the eggs, stirring for a minute and breaking the egg using a spatula. Cook the egg until just no longer wet. To the plate with the chicken, quickly transfer the scrambled egg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 4: Using a paper towel, wipe the skillet clean. Add another 1 tbsp oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Over the pan, evenly spread 5 cups of rice and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes, undisturbed. Then, stir and continue to cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. At this point, the rice should sizzle. Over the rice, drizzle 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 1\/2 tsp sesame oil. Stir well before adding in the thawed veggies. Mix again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5: To the skillet, return the cooked chicken and scrambled egg. Next, stir in 1\/4 c green onions. Cook further until the rice and veggies are hot and the rice sizzles, stirring often. To taste, season with extra soy sauce and sesame oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To prevent the fried rice from getting sticky, make sure to rinse the rice before cooking. This will get rid of the extra starch. For 5 cups of cooked white rice, you need about 1 1\/2 cups of raw rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easily make this dish gluten-free by simply using Tamari soy sauce or a soy sauce labelled \u201cgluten-free\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
