Chicken Fried Rice
I just love the taste of freshly cooked chicken fried rice, especially at Benihana’s.
I never thought that I could create anything close at home until I found the recipe below.
It really is delicious, and it really is something the whole family will enjoy.
The slightly crunchy rice mixed with the fresh spring onions, mushrooms, and scrambled eggs is a tasty treat.
This is a meal that I crave about every other week. I used brown rice instead of white rice, but either one is great. I was just in a healthier mood today, so opted for the brown rice bags from Trader Joe’s.
Easy Chicken Friend Rice Ingredients- Rice, Chicken Breasts, Mushrooms, Eggs, Spring Onions, Soy Sauce

I know, Benihana’s is so good and so fun. Its the complete dining/entertainment experience. We actually went for my husband’s birthday this year in January, and then in March, for my birthday, I wanted to go again, so we did. Yes, I would be interested in joining your cooking show sometime. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
Wow, I really like how you have this laid out step by step, that’s awesome! My wife would like this recipe. I wanted to tell you that your images might need resized a little, they took a while to load. I use a program called Vso Image Resizer that works really well for this. Anyways, thanks for sharing!
