Best 3 Perfect Thai Fried Rice With Marinated Chicken Recipes

PERFECT THAI FRIED RICE WITH MARINATED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine chicken thighs, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, brown sugar, and black pepper in a bowl. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator, 2 hours to overnight.
• Heat a wok or very large skillet over high heat for 30 seconds. Pour in vegetable oil. Reduce heat to medium; add onion and garlic. Cook and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Increase heat to high and add marinated chicken to the wok; cook, stirring constantly, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes.
• Push chicken mixture to one side of the wok; pour eggs into the empty side. Cook until just starting to set, about 2 minutes. Stir eggs slowly until scrambled. Mix into the chicken mixture. Season with 3 tablespoons soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper; stir for 1 minute.
• Stir rice into the wok until evenly incorporated and heated through, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in green onion and cilantro. Mix gently until combined.

PERFECT CHICKEN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Marinate chicken for at least 3 hours. Remove from marinade and place on rack on baking pan. Bake at 350 until cooked through and dark meat juices run clear (about 165 degrees on a meat thermometer, per US FDA guideline). Do not overcook meat. Using a meat thermometer is the only way to ensure proper degree of doneness. Cool chicken until it can be handled, then cut into small cubes or shred. Set aside.
• Combine rice and water in medium saucepan. Cook 18 to 20 minutes or until tender and water is absorbed. Set aside.
• Heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 TBS oil and heat until oil smokes slightly and ripples. Add beaten egg. Cook until set. Using a thin, flexible spatula, carefully flip the omelet. Cook briefly on the other side. Remove from pan, cool and cut into matchsticks. Set aside.
• Combine soy sauce, hot Asian oil and sesame oil. Set aside.
• Heat second TBS oil in wok or large skillet over medium heat. If using a wok, turn to coat sides with oil. Add garlic and saute for about 15 to 30 seconds. Add regular onion and saute about 3 minutes. Add green pepper and saute for about 3 minutes. Add rice, toss to mix with thoroughly vegetables. Saute about 1 to 2 minutes. Add green onion and saute about 1 minute. Add soy sauce mixture. Saute for about 1 to 2 minutes or until soy sauce is mostly absorbed. Turn off heat. Add egg matchsticks and cooked chicken. Toss gently to blend. Serve immediately.

BEEF OR CHICKEN FRIED RICE (ASIAN)

Steps:

• Slice beef or chicken breast into thin strips.
• For the marinade; combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, one minced clove of garlic, and red chili.
• Marinate meat for several hours (over night is best).
• Thinly slice green onions and coarsely chop the green tops. Separate, as they will go in at different times.
• Grate the carrots.
• Slice the dried chilies lengthwise.
• Scramble the eggs lightly in a bowl.
• Heat the oil in a wok or deep pan.
• Fry the eggs until set, remove and slice into strips.
• Add the garlic and sliced green onions (white part) and the sliced red chilies to the hot oil, sauté for a minute or so, then add the marinated meat, reserving the marinade (beef only). If you're cooking chicken, don't reserve the marinade; just add some soy sauce in its place later in the process.
• Stir fry the meat until cooked, and then remove.
• Add the chilled, cooked rice to the hot oil and stir fry until heated thoroughly.
• Add the meat, green onion tops, carrots, egg slices, and some or all of the the reserved marinade (or equal amount of soy sauce if you used chicken, about 1/4 cup).
• Stir fry until all is heated through.
• Serve immediately.
