This recipe was recommended by Chef #47907 and we're so glad we tried it. This is really great fried rice with lots of flavor. I used fresh steamed veggies and for the heat I used jabanero sauce and Buddha (who normally does not like fried rice) went back for thirds. Enough said. :)

I made this up for lunch using some leftover rice, leftover chicken, and some veggies I had in the fridge and it was very tasty and a great way to use up leftovers. I liked the flavor of the teriyaki sauce since I usually use soy sauce in fried rice. Thanks for posting a recipe I'll be using in the future! Made for Pick~A~Chef, Spring 2008.
