Chicken fried rice is a healthy, one dish meal. Like all fried rice
dishes, Chicken fried rice tastes best when using leftover cooked rice.

Chicken Fried Rice #1

4 cups cold cooked rice
8 ounces cooked chicken (or substitute cooked turkey, etc.), chopped
2 eggs (more if desired)
1/2 cup green peas
1 medium onion, diced
1 green onion, diced
Seasonings (add according to taste):
Light Soy Sauce
Oyster sauce
Salt
Pepper
Oil for stir-frying, as needed

Beat the eggs lightly with chopsticks, add a dash of salt (Add a
bit of oyster sauce if desired).
Chop the chicken meat and dice the onion and green onion.
Heat wok and add oil.
When oil is ready, pour 1/2 of the egg mixture into the wok and
cook over medium heat, turning over once. Cook the other half
the same way. Cut the egg into thin strips, and save for later.
Stir-fry the onion on high heat for a few moments, remove and
set aside. Do the same for the green peas.
Add oil, turn down the heat to medium and stir-fry the rice.
Add the soy sauce, salt, pepper and oyster sauce. Add the
chicken, onion and green peas and combine thoroughly. Serve
chicken fried rice with the strips of egg on top and the green
onion as a garnish. (Alternately, you can mix the green onion
and egg in with the other ingredients).
Makes 3 main dish servings or 4 - 6 as part of a meal.
