on

Bored to go outside to get a chicken fried rice from a restaurant. What if you can make the yummiest restaurant-style chicken fried rice by yourself at your very own kitchen?

Let's see what you need!

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups of raw rice cooked (so that it will be around 5-6 cups of cooked rice)
  • 250g of boneless chicken (preferably chicken breast) cut into small strips
  • 3-4 eggs
  • Finely sliced garlic
  • 1 cup of shredded cabbage (cut it long and thin)
  • 1 cup of julienned carrot (cut it bit long and thin) (julienned is a type of cut which is used for vegetables in culinary art)
  • 1 cup of julienned capsicum or green bell pepper
  • 3-4 tablespoons of spring onions cut into small pieces (take the green parts)
  • 3 teaspoons of dark soy sauce (use 4-5 teaspoons if it is a light soy sauce you have)
  • 1 teaspoon of white vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons of oil
  • 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine
  • Black pepper powder
  • Salt to taste

DIRECTIONS

  • Beat the eggs by adding salt and black pepper as you prefer and then take a pan and add 1 tablespoon of oil with 2 tablespoons of butter/ margarine. Heat it. Later, add the beaten eggs and scramble it. Then, remove it to a separate plate.
  • Remember to clean the pan after removing the eggs with a kitchen towel!
  • Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in the same pan and add the sliced garlic, stir fry it on high heat. Allow it to turn golden brown.
  • Add the chicken strips and then add some salt and black pepper powder for it to taste. Mix well. Stir fry on high heat for about 1 minute. Once it turns in to a beautiful white color add 1 teaspoon of dark soy sauce (2 teaspoons if it is light soy sauce). Let it turn golden brown on medium heat. (This allows the chicken strips to cook)
  • Add the carrot and the capsicum/ green bell pepper and stir fry it for about 2 minutes on high heat. Then, add the cabbage and mix well while stir-frying for about another 1 minute.
  • Add the cooked rice and mix it well with all the vegetables and the chicken strips. Season it with some salt and black pepper powder as per your preference. Give it a good mix. Then, add the 1 teaspoon of white vinegar and also add the remaining 2 teaspoons of dark soy sauce (2 or 3 teaspoons if it is light soy sauce). Let it fry on medium heat for about 3 minutes. (Toss it if you want)
  • Later, add the scrambled eggs and give it a good mix. Keep it on the heat for about 2 more minutes. And here we are!
  • Serve it in a rice bowl and sprinkle the rice with the spring onions.
Enjoy with your family!!
