Why This Dish Is So Special

Quick, flavorful, and perfect for busy weeknights. It uses simple ingredients and only one pan, making cleanup easy. Plus, it’s a great way to use leftover rice and customize with your favorite veggies.

Helpful Cooking Tips

- Use day-old rice for the best texture; fresh rice can be too soft and sticky.
- Cook the chicken first and set it aside to avoid overcooking.
- Stir constantly when frying the rice to prevent it from sticking or burning.

Step 1

Warm some oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook it for about 6 minutes, until it’s nicely browned. Toss in the light parts of the onions, garlic, and ginger, and stir everything around for another minute to release those flavors.

Step 2

Pour in the broth and rice, then cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid. Let it cook gently over medium-low heat for about 15 minutes, until the rice is tender and the broth has been absorbed. During the last few minutes, add the broccoli and peas so they steam right along with the rice.

Step 3

Once it’s done, take the pan off the heat and let it sit, still covered, for a couple of minutes. Finally, remove the lid, fluff the rice with a fork, and sprinkle on the green parts of the onions before serving.

Best Serving Ideas

Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad for a balanced meal. Add a drizzle of soy sauce or a sprinkle of chopped green onions on top for extra flavor.

How To Freeze This Dish

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave, adding a splash of water if the rice seems dry. Avoid freezing, as the texture may change.
