Fried Rice


i haven't posted anything in so long, the problem is that when i post something i want to have a picture. well when i am making dinner and trying to get it on the table i either forget to take a picture or i just don't get it done, plus my kids roll their eyes when i get out the camera at dinner:) anyway i want to get some recipes down pictures or not.
i love making fried rice, i make it pretty healthy and i love anything i can get lots of veggies into!
Chicken Fried Rice GF
i cook 4 or 5 cups mixed brown and white rice in a rice cooker (about 1c. per person)
1/3 C. gluten free soy sauce, i use san J brand wheat free soy sauce
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or i used 4 boneless,skinless thighs cut in pieces
2 large eggs beaten
1 carrot diced
about a cup of frozen peas, just eyeball it
1 C. of frozen broccoli florets (run under hot water until defrosted)
1 Tbs. sesame oil
small corns, asian section of the grocery store
cook rice in rice cooker. when it is done scoop it out onto a jelly roll pan to cool off. saute chicken in sesame oil or any oil but i love the asian taste of sesame. when pink is gone from chicken toss in carrots, stir fry for a few min. add broccoli, peas and corns until veggies are tender 5-10 min. (at this point i usually get moisture from the chicken but add a little oil if needed). scramble egg in seperate pan. i don't have a wok so i put the chicken /veggie mixture in a dutch oven pan and add the rice and the soy sauce. mix and fold together and add eggs to toss. this makes a ton of fried rice, you can make less rice for smaller portions but we have this as a main dish.YUM!
