My family found this to be OK. We thought it lacked flavor. I followed the recipe exactly as written. I used cooked chicken from Recipe #254568 and rice I had in my freezer. I used 3 eggs but thought that was a bit much. I also added some peas and carrots but it was still missing something for us.

My first attempt at making fried rice and I loved it! I marinated my chicken using this recipe: Marinated Chicken Breasts #172444 and stir-fried so I could add it to the rice. Also used red onion (personal perference) and added frozen peas.

I'm really pleased to have found this recipe! It's just SO easy to make and there are so many occasions when these are the recipes we all need. What I also loved about it is its versatilty: that you can so easily add extra ingredients: whatever takes your fancy - or whatever you have on hand - at the time. On this occasion, I added some baby spinach leaves, some garlic flakes and some bean shoots. And voilà: better fried rice than you'd buy as takeaway. And you know exactly what's in it! Thanks for sharing this super recipe!
