It can have everything and anything you love in it and super easy to make.

The Flavors Are All There!

Asian flavors, egg, seafood, meat and whatever you like to go in it.


If you love it plain with no meat that's fine too.


The photo's below are with chicken and shrimp.


I love mine with peppers with the chicken and shrimp, with pork I leave it with carrots and peas.

Change it up!

You can also add sliced mushrooms, and shredded vegetables like zucchini, onions, carrots, cabbage, broccoli or anything else you like.


I have two versions one with chicken and shrimp below and the other is leftover pork roast.


Whatever you have leftover in meats or steak goes great with this rice.

Add What You Like

This fried rice plain with just the egg in it is very good without any other additions.


It's the perfect side dish.


Get creative with whatever you order when at a restaurant, this will transform into your new favorite meal or side dish!

Stir Fry the Chicken and Shrimp

If you are going to add raw meats and seafood, stir fry them in garlic and olive oil until the meats and seafood are cooked through.


I prefer to cook any additions of seafood or meats in a separate pan first.


With the chicken and shrimp, I usually add bell peppers sliced and sometimes even broccoli as see in the photo and do the rice separately.


Snowpeas, shredded cabbage, water chestnuts, and shredded carrots go great as additions as well.


You can add whatever you like to this basic recipe for fried rice if the meats and seafood are cooked first.
