Fried Rice For Life!

Mastering a quick and easy fried rice recipe opens the door to countless possibilities. Once you know the technique, you can whip up a different type of fried rice any night of the week! Originating in North and Southeast Asia, fried rice comes in numerous variations. From Thai Cashew Chicken Fried Rice to Shrimp Pad-Thai with Jasmine Rice, there are endless ways to switch up this tasty dish.

In this dish, we’ll show how to use Boil-in-Bag Rice to make a quick and easy fried rice recipe. Hassle-free from start to finish, it’s no wonder this is one of our favorite dishes!

Starting with a skillet set over medium-high heat, sauté your veggies, including onions, celery and carrots, until tender. Then, add in two bags of our pre-cooked Success® Jasmine Rice or Success® White Rice. Toss in some pre-cooked ham, or your cooked protein of choice, and soy sauce.

Remember to stir this dish constantly to prevent the rice from clumping together. You’ll also want to add in two scrambled eggs for an added boost of flavor. They break down in the rice into tiny, savory morsels and are traditional to many fried rice recipes.

Wok or Skillet?

If you’re wondering if a wok is necessary, the answer is no. All you really need to make this dish is a large skillet. We recommend a wide, carbon steel frying pan or any nonstick pan. As for a cooking utensil, a stainless steel or silicone spatula will do just fine. Looking for new dinner ideas? Try our: how to make Spanish white rice.
