Quick and Easy Chicken Fried Rice - Using Ingredients You Already Have at Home

chicken

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Tofu is lower in calories and suitable for vegetarians; chicken thighs are more budget-friendly.

Cut chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and marinate with ginger, soy sauce, and rice wine.

Chop half an onion and prepare 1 cup of broccoli florets.

Beat 3 eggs lightly.

Heat a wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

Add the beaten eggs to the wok and cook until about 80% done, then remove from the wok.

Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok and add the chicken, searing for about a minute on one side.

Push the chicken to the side and add the onions and broccoli, cooking for 2 to 3 minutes until tender.

Add 3 to 4 cups of cold leftover rice to the wok and break up any clumps.

Stir in 2 teaspoons of soy sauce and 2 teaspoons of oyster sauce, mixing well.

Add the cooked eggs back into the wok and toss everything together.

Drizzle with sesame oil before serving.
