This mouth-watering spicy chicken fried rice can be prepared in less than 30 mins for a quick and tasty meal. Very similar to regular chicken fried rice but a kick of chilli in this dish makes all the difference. This fried rice is very popular in Burma and can be found in all most every canteens, street food stalls and in restaurants. You can cook with simple ingredients that you can easily find in your fridge.

Bursting with flavour and perfect dinner option for busy weeknight.

INGREDIENTS :

Rice : A day old leftover rice is perfect for making fried rice. It is drier and harder than fresh cooked rice. When you add fresh cook rice in stir fry, it can be a bit mushy because it is moist and soft. I usually love to make with jasmine rice but you can use any medium grain rice, brown rice or any of your favourite rice.
Protein : I fry the fluffy egg first and remove from wok before I start frying chicken because I don't want to over cook the egg. I usually make with chicken breast, cut into small dices for this recipe. This dish also goes well with chicken thigh, sausage, prawns, etc.
Vegetables : Carrot, sweetcorn, green peas, spring onions are mostly use in this recipe. You can add extra vegetables like cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli cut in small dices. Suggest not put too much meat and vegetables in the fried rice. You need enough space toss the rice and vegetables evenly.
Stir Fry Sauce : Stir fry sauce is a combination of light soy sauce, sweet soy sauce, oyster sauce and sesame oil. You can add one teaspoon of dark soy sauce if you like brown fried rice.

    Another great recipe we’ve tried and loved. Thanks for this. Just a little note, your recipe doesn’t say when to add the eggs that had been cooked and removed from the wok, I just added them with the spring onions and it was great!
    Really love your recipes, thank you.
