Simple Fried Rice Recipe – What will you serve it with?
Simple Fried Rice – super easy recipe for a side dish that goes well with meats and fish for a complete dinner meal. The rice is first cooked in meat stock, then fried in a skillet with soy sauce, vegetables and oil to bring out the the best flavors.
I like to serve it with roasted drumsticks, chicken thighs, or chinese chicken but even Alfredo mushrooms will work well for a vegetarian alternative (just omit the soy sauce if you do use the Alfredo mushrooms).
This recipe for Fried Rice is the most basic, meaning that you can add frozen peas, carrots or other vegetables you like. Go ahead, put your own spin on this easy and delicious fried rice!
