A quick, protein-packed fried rice that I like to make with tender chicken, plenty of fresh garlic, vegetables and brown rice. Cooking everything in the same wok helps the rice absorb the savoury flavours from the chicken, garlic and soy sauce. It’s simple, filling and works especially well for a quick lunch or dinner.

Tips

I prefer freshly cooked rice because its moisture makes fried rice soft and flavorful, though day-old rice can also be used but may turn out drier. Sauté garlic over medium heat, then add chicken, bell peppers, and green onions to build flavor. Drizzle in a little light soy sauce so it does not overpower the dish. Finally, cook the rice in the same pan so it absorbs all the savory flavors and becomes more fragrant and delicious.
