Teriyaki Fried Rice
This is a basic recipe I keep around. I always have everything on hand and can make this dish in minutes. I will alternate chicken with shrimp and use whatever vegetables I have on hand. I'll list the recipe as I made it last night, but you could absolutely change the meat/vegetables to your liking. Whenever I make jasmine or brown rice, I make extra and pop it in the freezer so I always have it on hand to make this dish. I keep frozen potstickers in the freezer and serve it alongside.
TERIYAKI FRIED RICE (Serves 2-3)
2-3 cups cooked rice
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 pound chicken, thinly sliced, or shrimp, shelled and deveined
2-3 green onions, chopped
1 small carrot, finely chopped
1/2 to 1 cup sugar snap peas, fresh or frozen (you could use peas)
1/2 small red pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup SOY VAY VERI VERI Teriyaki Sauce (you can use another brand, but this stuff is simply the best!)
Over medium-high heat, stir the chicken or shrimp until fully cooked in 1/2 Tbsp olive oil. Remove from pan. Add the rest of the olive oil and saute green onions, carrots, and red pepper over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in peas, rice, and shrimp or chicken. Pour in the teriyaki sauce and stir to distribute evenly. Cook another few minutes over medium heat, stirring frequently.
