Instructions
Creating the Savory Japanese BBQ Chicken Fried Rice Extravaganza is simple. Follow these steps for the best results:
1. Prepare the Rice: Make sure your jasmine rice is cooked and cooled. This helps prevent the rice from becoming mushy when stir-frying.
2. Cook the Chicken: In a large wok or skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
3. Sauté the Aromatics: In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sauté the minced garlic and diced onion until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add Vegetables: Stir in the mixed vegetables and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
5. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked rice to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir everything together, breaking apart any clumps of rice.
6. Incorporate Chicken: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, mixing it well with the rice and vegetables.
7. Season the Rice: Add the soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, and sesame oil. Toss everything together until evenly coated, allowing the flavors to meld. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
8. Adjust and Serve: Taste the fried rice and adjust seasoning if necessary. If you like some spiciness, add chili sauce at this point. Remove from heat.
9. Garnish: Serve the fried rice warm, garnished with sliced green onions for a fresh touch.
These steps will help you create a delightful meal that captures the essence of Japanese BBQ while delivering the comfort of fried rice.
