Shrimp and Chicken Fried Rice

Leftover rice isn’t really a thing in our house so I make rice with this in mind. The trick is to have fridge cold rice, so you need to think about it the night before. Or in a pinch cook the rice and pop it in the freezer to chill down while you get everything else ready.

Ingredients

Method

Turn cooking mode on

Step 1

Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan set over a medium-high heat. Add 2 sliced chicken thighs and pan-fry for about 4 minutes – or until golden on the outside and cooked through (the exact time will depend on how thick your chicken strips are).

Notes

Rice: you can use all sorts of cooked rice. I find basmati works best but leftover jasmine or brown rice would also work.

Chicken: you can swap the chicken thighs for chicken breasts, if you prefer. Thinly sliced beef steak or pork works well too. Alternatively, you can use leftover cooked meat from a Sunday roast. Just add with the cooked rice and make sure it is all piping hot before serving.

Variations of veg: the veg in this recipe is just a guide. I tend to use whatever I have to hand – while thinking of the flavours and textures. Shredded cabbage adds crunch whilst edamame beans are great for extra protein. Thinly sliced radishes, mushrooms and mangetout all work really well. I also love sweetcorn for a hint of sweetness. Think of this as a fridge raid meal, then go from there.

What to do with leftovers: Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days. The best way to reheat is in a pan over medium heat, until hot all the way through. Sometimes I add a tsp of sesame oil to help it along. Otherwise, 1-2 minutes in the microwave also works.
