A simple and easy chicken fried rice recipe! So flavorful and a great alternative to your typical Chinese fried rice takeout dish!
Whenever I want to make an effortless meal and bring myself back to my Asian roots, I make fried rice. I always have some frozen veggies in my freezer for easy meals like this.
I used 1 day old fried rice for this recipe. I made everything exactly the same way as my Garlic Turkey Fried Rice recipe, but just subbed it for chicken breast in this recipe.
Hope you enjoy this delicious recipe!! It’s one of my go-to recipes when I have leftover rice!
