Healthy Chicken Fried Rice

What a faff, hadn't got pre cooked rice so had to cook normal, Bland and boring.

More carrots for more color

Little bitter for my taste but good and healthy. I've added a little bit of honey as I love it in meals and it makes it taste nice.

Nice flavoured meal, not too spicy. Do 4 person meal.

It was lovely

5 spice was over powering

Just a recipe idea.

It was a hit and now a favorite in my house

Great recipe idea (although I made my own adjustments) to try something different for dinner. I fried the garlic with an onion on some butter and then cooked the chicken like so. Added veggies, broth and left it to boil, then poured in some double cream, added seasoning and mixed in the rice that was cooking meanwhile.

I made my own chinese five spice and next time I will use a little less aniseed. I used star anise, but still need a little less next time. This isn't your average restaurant style fried rice. But it is still pretty good. I did not add chicken to it. I used brown rice and cooked it in the instant pot. Once done, I added frozen carrots, bell peppers, onions, green beans and peas. Then cooked it all with a bit more water for another few minutes, until everything was thawed and heated through. Then stirred it all together and added scrambled eggs and scallions (green onions) and used it for a side dish with bourbon chicken. Altogether really good. Probably won't make it again, but that's more because I like traditional fried rice.

Made a little extra rice 3 instead of 2. Made enough for leftovers. Husband approved and even ate the vegetables.

Need to amend the recipe to have the chicken cook as part of the recipe. I'm buying raw chicken, not cooked, I need a recipe that's comprehensive rather than just describing half of what I need to do

It was good! I added half the amount of the Chinese spices after reading the reviews and it turned out good.

Nice simple recipe, tasted great! Only thing I wasn't sure about was only cooking the chicken for 3 minutes. I browned mine off for a few minutes first before putting it to one side and cooking the veg.

Good

Great thanks. Could be more clear about pre-cooking the chicken and rice but other than that, no problems 👍

Chinese 5 spice over took the whole dish.

Really simple and tasty while getting my greens in. I added an egg to make it egg fried rice which worked too if you like that.

Added eggs this time and mushrooms. Much more tastier

When I make it again, I will use half teaspoon of Chinese 5 spice and coriander or add about 1/4 cup of unsalted chicken broth.

Easy and quick to make very versatile if u dont have some ingredients, you can swap them for different ones.

It wasn't great. Also, cooking the chicken wasn't included in the actual recipe so there wasn't any instruction on that. For anyone that's going to try this recipe, definitely use day old rice and use a couple eggs because that also isn't included in the instruction anywhere, which is odd because each of those are pretty vital in making a good fried rice.

Good fakeaway choice for fried rice. Added egg to it

not much flavor

V nice

Everything was good except our household did not care for the Chinese 5 Spice seasoning.

Really good!!

Instructions are rubbish! Added more carrot, another pepper, small butternut squash & 2 eggs fried in the rice. Sauce was too 5 spice heavy but overall not a bad dish

Delicious! I decided to use frozen sweet chilli chicken which I bought from my local Chinese supermarket and added that to the meal. Really tasty and it gave the dish and a nice crispy texture! 😋✨️

Didn't enjoy at all. The flavour was Too strong even with the water added. Was also too savory so added a tiny dash of honey which did improve the flavour but wouldn't make again. Unfortunately have leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I've tried better stir fry sauces on here with similar ingredients but slightly different.

Very tasty

Was not a fan of the flavor and our rice ended up mushy.

Loved it very, very tasty. I did cook the vegetables first as I think they cook better I will definitely make again

Had flavor, just not my kind of taste.

It was very tasty but I would add some bits of scrambled eggs 🍳 and remove the carrots 🥕.

Acceptable but nothing of exceptional ... not comparable, neither from far away with the grilled salmon recipe

Did not have fresh coriander, used dried, just used 1 tsp instead of 1 tablespoon. Delicious recipe! Will become a staple for us!

Gummy, way too salty, needed precooked chicken not included in cooking time

I added a little ham since I only had a couple cubes of chicken but its awesome!

Swapped out the green beans for broccoli and it was perfect! Will make again.

I switched out the green beans for asparagus.

Can be very fast if the rice is already cooked. I liked the five spice flavors, but the rest of my family did not. (How do you feel about anise?)

I pre cooked the brown rice and refrigerated for 6 hours before cooking. Brown rice added a great texture. Very flavoursome. The Chinese 5 spice is strong so may want to pull back on that if you are sensitive to it.

Threw in a bunch of left over veg, didn't all work great but it was nice enough

Added some mushrooms and red onion.

This was not my favorite dish ever but it had some new fun flavors. I've never used the Chinese five spice before. It's different, but good. No we need to try other dishes with that spice. We copped up some of the veggies really small to be more edible for those who don't love veggies. Leftovers tasted good too.

SO EASY AND GOOD

Tastes good!

Really lovely taste and easy to make

I felt there was far too much seasoning for the ingredients to carry. I made it for 6 and did not add water as that seemed unnecessary. I wish the first step was to cook the chicken as the word "cooked" was easy to miss in the ingredients list.

It would have been good without those seasonings. That combo was terrible!

The recipe is great. I forgot to make the rice in advance which meant it went a little sticky. So remember to cook it the day before and leave it to cool overnight.

They fail to tell you to cook rice and chicken before the 1,2,3 instructions. Very flavorful

I really liked this and had left overs the following 2 days. My wife didn't like it and probably wouldn't have it again. I had it with the Mayflower Chinese curry sauce (only 70 cals) and liked it as much as a takeaway.

Was good. Had to change it up a bit and marinaded the chicken in the sauce. Also used garlic oil instead of sesame as we don't like it.

Nice. Became mushy when instructed to add more water... this step probs ruined thr dish

If I was to make it again I would not add water to the pan as it made the rice a bit mushy. It was spit on until that. Nice dish though

Something was off with the flavoring. Maybe too much corriander and cumin with the 5 spice mix?

Flavor was a little off because I couldn’t find Chinese five spice anywhere but overall it was a great dinner! Rice got mushy but we didn’t have day old rice and I’m not sure how else to get it crispy but will make again and continue to work on it!

It was lovely. I added more rice than stated for 2 people as the portion was tiny.

Fabulous fakeaway, used mayflower Chinese curry sauce mix to accompany it, just leave a few silver foil takeaway trays around the kitchen and the family wouldn't realise the cheat!!

Realised too late I didn't have any brown rice, so made it with pasta instead. Added onto the cooking time. I also used broccoli instead of green beans and still had to cook the chicken so it wasn't as quick, but it still came out nicely. Added a bit of sweet and sour sauce to the final product. Could have been one dish if I was using leftover rice and chicken LOL.

Use white or brown rice.

Great base but I'd change a few things. The sauce was a good flavor but dense probably don't need that much sesame oil either. I ended up adding 4 cups of rice to dilute it. I used 8 oz of chicken. I would prefer peas to green beans ... Too tough. And

Whole family loved this. Delicious and flavoursome Will definitely make again. Thank you 😊
