Fried Rice

My wife and I love Chinese food! The only problem is that these foods can be super high in sodium, and you can pack in a days worth of calories in a single dish without even realizing it!

Here is a quick and easy recipe for fried rice. Its less than 200 calories per serving, and you get to control how much sodium goes into it.

Fried rice

  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup finely shredded cooked chicken breast
  • 6 green onions (white and green parts), sliced
  • 4 cups cooked brown rice
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • Salt to taste, optional

Heavily coat a skillet with nonstick cooking spray.  Cook eggs over medium heat, until firm, about 4 minutes.  Shred eggs.  Add chicken and onions and fry over medium-high heat for 4 minutes, stirring constantly.  Add cooked rice and continue to fry.

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce and sugar and drizzle over the rice-mixture in pan. Continue to cook, stirring constantly until rice is hot. Salt to taste.
