Easy Fried Rice (WW)
Adapted From: Web


Ingredients

Cooking Spray

2 Egg

1 pound Chicken (breast; cut up into strips or chunks per preference)

1 cup Carrots (diced or shredded)

1 cup Green Onions (sliced)

2 cup Rice (uncooked)

.5 cup Peas (frozen)

.25 cup Soy Sauce


Directions

  • Cook rice according to package directions.
  • Meanwhile, coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray.  Add eggs; tilt the pan so that the eggs cover the bottom.  When eggs start to set, break them up into pieces with a heat-proof spatula or wooden spoon.  Cook until eggs are cooked through; about 1 minute more.  Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
  • Re-coat the same skillet with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat.  Add chicken and season with salt and pepper.  Cook ~5 minutes.
  • Add carrots and all but 2 Tbs of scallions.  Cook until the carrots are crisp-tender, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Stir in cooked rice.  Cook until slightly browned.  (I like to let sit to brown rice and then kind flip over vs. stir.)
  • Add peas and soy sauce; cook until heated through, stirring once or twice, about 1 minute.  
  • Gently stir in the cooked egg and the remaining scallions; heat through.

Serving size ~3/4 cup.  Total servings = 6


Katie Dishes - Two Thumbs Up

We love this one in our house.  Very good; great as left-overs as well.  Flavorful while low-cal.


I start with the 1/4 cup of soy sauce and adjust based on flavor (up to 1/2 cup).  I also have added garlic after carrots are softened if you like garlic.
