Vietnam Fried Rice

Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients

• 2 cup rice
• 4 Tbs. cooking oil
• 1 lb. any cooked or raw meat I used 2 large boneless chicken breasts that I sliced thin
• 3 cloves garlic minced
• 1 large onion chopped
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. pepper
• 1 tsp.. sugar
• 1 Tbs. soy sauce
• 1 cup leftover or frozen vegetables I used frozen peas and carrots
• 2 eggs beaten

Instructions

• Cook the rice.
• In a hot skillet add the oil and stir fry the meat if it’s not cooked. I sprinkled some soy sauce on the chicken before I stir fried it.
• Remove the meat from the skillet and add the garlic, onion, salt, pepper, sugar and soy sauce. I didn’t measure any of this, just eye-balled it.
• Stir fry until the onion is cooked through.
• Stir in the beaten eggs, stir frying until the eggs are done. They will not and should not look like scrambled eggs you eat for breakfast.
• Add the vegetables and stir fry until they are hot through.
• Add the chicken back in to the skillet, along with the rice.
• Throw in some more soy sauce until it looks good to you.

Pull out the chop sticks and enjoy!
