We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Cook rice following packet directions then drain and then rinse under cold water and then drain well.

  • Step 2: Spread rice onto a tray. Refrigerate until cold, if time permits (if you don't refrigerate you could end up with gluey fried rice so would suggest you cook rice the day before and refrigerate).

  • Step 3: Heat a wok over medium-high heat and add oil and swirl to coat and add onion and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes or until starting to brown and then add garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 1 minute and now add vegetables and stir-fry for 4 minutes or until tender, add chicken and rice and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes or until heated through, before adding combined soy and sugar and stir-fry for 1 minute and serve sprinkled with coriander.

  • Step 4: NOTE - You could use a combination of frozen peas, canned or frozen corn kernels, carrot, celery and capsicum or choose your own mix of vegetables.
