Take a few shortcuts to make this quick and easy 15 Minute Stir Fry Rice recipe. Made with all the essentials, you’d be surprised that this side dish only takes 15 minutes to make.
I love Chinese food. I can’t say that I’ve had true authentic Chinese food but the Americanized dishes are pretty great. It depends on the mood that I’m in to determine the dish I prefer at the time. I guess you can say that I’ve had the typical dishes like Orange Chicken, General Tso’s Chicken, Bourbon Chicken, and always, Crab Rangoon. Whenever I get Chinese food, I also get my meals with fried rice.
I can absolutely eat Fried Rice by itself. Especially Chicken Fried Rice. It is a meal all on its own. I love a simple fried rice recipe with onions, peas and carrots, and shreds of chicken. I’ve had some fried rice recipes that had a little bit too much stuff in it for me like water chestnuts, peanuts, and some other stuff. For me, less is more. Not only that, when I am making homemade Chinese Food, I need my dishes to be quick and easy.
