PEKING HOUSE SPECIAL FRIED RICE
This comes from the Peking House restaurant in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Easily adaptable to what you have on hand, including any meat you like, or use tofu. The cook times are approximate since none were given. It cooks fast, though, if you are using all leftover rice, eggs, and meat, which this recipe assumes. If you have to cook the meat, scramble eggs, etc. then it will take longer. It's best to use leftover rice.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, fragrant rice, and flavorful sauces make all the difference in a great fried rice dish.
- Cook the rice ahead of time: Cold, leftover rice is best for fried rice because it doesn't clump together as easily.
- Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A well-seasoned wok or large skillet will help prevent the rice from sticking and burning.
- Heat the wok or skillet over high heat: This will help create a nice sear on the rice and vegetables.
- Add the ingredients in stages: Start with the vegetables that take the longest to cook, then add the rice, and finally add the eggs and meat.
- Stir-fry constantly: This will help prevent the rice from sticking and burning.
- Season to taste: Add soy sauce, fish sauce, or other seasonings to taste.
- Serve immediately: Fried rice is best served hot and fresh.
