CHICKEN FRIED RICE - OAMC
I figured out that you can make this in gargantuan quantities and freeze in containers for later. It really saves time...only about 10 minutes to heat up and is a great addition to any Chinese meal. Great way to use extra cooked rice too! I have a rice cooker and it's really easy to make extra. Cook time includes cooking "real" rice and chicken.

OAMC CHICKEN FRIED RICE
I know there are many fried rice recipes, but here is my own version of a favorite quick OAMC lunch and dinner we all enjoy. I hope you do too! To make it OAMC just portion out one cup of mix into freezer bags, thaw in the microwave for about 2 minutes, then stir fry in some oil for about another 3 minutes to get that "Fried" taste and texture. This recipe makes a TON!

Steps:
- Cook water, rice, and boullion cubes for about 30 - 40 minutes, or until done.
- Scramble the eggs.

Tips:
- Use day-old rice: This will help the rice stay fluffy and separate when fried.

- Use a well-seasoned wok: This will help prevent the rice from sticking.
- Cook the rice over high heat: This will help it get crispy.

- Serve the rice immediately: This is when it is at its best.
