This was a fast and easy recipe for Martha Mondays this week. I actually changed the recipe (just a bit) and used leftover shredded chicken which I crisped in the wok and I ommited the peas as we had beans with the rice and I didn’t use any stock as I didn’t want the rice to go mushy.
This was tasty and very quick (15 minutes in total). My only annoying remark is the way the recipe is written. I scan the recipe before I start but pretty much dart around the kitchen as I get to the next step, although I did managed to beat the eggs before adding them to the wok. But surely the step for the soy sauce and sugar to be mixed should be at the start of the recipe rather than at the end(?) Just saying.
Now that I have a recipe for leftover roast chicken I will be making this again. I reckon it would work well with turkey too. I loved the kick of ginger but I will probably add a herb to it next time and maybe a little carrot for some colour. This was good though. Nice and quick and easy.

I didn’t mix the soy sauce (I used tamari actually) and water with the cornstarch/water – just dumped it in separately. I turned the heat off to get those ingredients.
Hi Pru. I didn’t make this because we have been eating way too much rice lately and we are trying to stay off the carbs for a while, although yesterday we were invited to a friend’s for dinner and she served rice as a side dish.. I am glad you liked it though. Well, I am tagging you, my dear. When you find the time, answer the “My seven links” challenge. I know you’ve been over to my blog and have seen what it is about. I hope you have fun going down memory lane and looking at all your older posts!

Chicken fried rice is always a favorite quick and easy meal or side dish. Yours looks delicious!
Thanks Kenn it really was delicious.
I love your picture! So serene. And delicious looking! I didn’t mix my soy sauce with sugar either. I just added them separately and it seemed to work out fine. It looks like we all changed the recipe up a bit but we all had success.

Thanks Ana. We eat alot of rice in our house as it is so quick. I’ll check what’s going on with the comments and am taking up your challenge. It should be fun!
Pru! I’m making chicken fried rice tomorrow evening. I have a lovely Pinot Gris from Oregon that I want to try with it. To be honest, I’m following my own recipe though (I posted it using duck, but I LOVE it with chicken). Merci!!!
