This delicious fried rice is a nice change of pace for leftover meat and veggies. It's good made with your choice of ham, pork, or grilled chicken. I like to put the rice together early in the day then simply reheat it at suppertime. It's already-tasty flavor seems to only improve with time!
Ingredients:
1 -2 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 garlic clove, minced
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 -2 cup cooked meat, diced
3 cups cooked rice
3 -4 green onions, sliced
1 cup bean sprouts
2 -4 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
Directions:
1. Heat oil in large skillet or wok; sauté onion over medium-high heat for 2 minutes; add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
2. Push onions and garlic to side; pour eggs onto bottom of wok; cook and stir eggs for 1-2 minutes until firm; stir onions, garlic, and eggs together.
3. Add meat, rice, green onions, and any additional veggies from optional list** below to wok; stir and toss until evenly mixed and almost heated through.
4. Add bean sprouts and soy sauce to wok; stir until heated through; serve (or put away for later meal) and enjoy!
5. For variety you may add (at same time as meat) any of the following **optional veggies: Sliced mushrooms, sliced water chestnuts, thinly sliced celery, snow peas, (thawed) peas & carrots, chopped green pepper, finely shredded cabbage, or slivered almonds ~ Just don't be afraid to experiment and use whatever's in your refrigerator!
6. Note: Including 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil with the vegetable oil gives the rice a really wonderful flavor!
