Some blogger buddies I know, started a fun food challenge. Each week we pick an ingredient and then everyone makes a recipe using that ingredient. This is my first week participating and the ingredient is eggs. I have been wanting to make some Chinese food, and chicken fried rice just happens to have eggs. It is perfect. This recipe is so tasty you won’t be calling in for Chinese take-out any more!

Chicken Fried Rice is one of my all-time favorites. This looks really good!
YUM! I used to play at making fried rice when I was in college, but haven’t made it again since! I definitely want to try this! 🙂
Day-old rice works better than freshly cooked rice because it’s dry and less sticky
Thanks for the tip!! That’s a great idea.
YUMMMM!! That looks delish!
Wow, that looks great. I tried something similar once and ruined it. Maybe I’ll try your recipe!
