Easy Chicken Fried Rice

Really great recipe I found for making chicken fried rice. Now I can keep out those peas a lot of restaurants put in their fried rice and I can add whatever veggies I want as well as bean sprouts :) 

Easy Chicken Fried Rice

Yield: Serves 2

Ingredients:
2 cups cooked rice
1 chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
1/2 cup frozen mixed vegetables
2 green onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 egg
3 tsp. sesame or wok oil, divided
2 tbsp. soy sauce

Directions:
Whisk egg with 1 teaspoon of oil in a small dish then set aside.
Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add seasoned chicken then stir fry until cooked through and remove to a plate. ( skip this step if using pre-cooked chicken).
Heat remaining teaspoon of oil in the wok and then add frozen mixed vegetables and green onions( I used fresh veggies). Stir fry until tender, about 2 minutes, then add garlic and cook for 30 more seconds. Push vegetables to the side of the wok then add egg and sesame oil mixture into the center and scramble.
Add cooked chicken, rice, and soy sauce to wok and toss until well combined.

Whats For Supper Tonight?

The question I hear time and time again from my husband. I don't always have an answer for him but tonight I did.
He love's having fish so he was happy to hear me say Tilapia which is a favorite fish around our house.
I also made Spanish rice so I will post the rice and the fish recipe so you can try them together as they're delicious to have in one meal.

Spanish Rice:
