Fried Rice - Laura Hale


3 1/2 cups chicken broth
3 Tablespoons Butter
2 teaspoons salt
3 cups Jasmin Rice
6 eggs, scrambled with a little salt and pepper
4 cups mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, celery, broccoli, peppers, green onions, spinach, kale, cauliflower, or corn; the more variety the better)
2 Tablespoons oil
2 large cloves Garlic, minced
1/2 cup Water
1 Tablespoons Sesame Oil
2 Tablespoon Frank's Red Hot Sauce
1/2 cup Soy Sauce
1-2 cups diced ham or shredded chicken, if desired

Bring chicken broth, butter and salt to a boil.  Add rice, stir, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.  

Cook Scrambled eggs.

While rice is cooking, cut vegetables.  I like to heat wok to 350.  Add oil and garlic.  Add veggies and cook stirring for 1 minute.
Add water, cover and simmer for 4 mintues.  

Add cooked rice and scrambled eggs.  Stir in Sesame oil, Frank's and soy sauce.  Add chicken and stir.

Note: Sam's club sells a package of fresh Teriyaki Stir Fry veggies with chow mein noodles and cashews for $3.99  It is just the right size for half of this recipe and is really yummy without all the work of washing and cutting the veggies.  Here is what I do with this option.

2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 Tablespoon Butter
1 teaspoon Salt
1 1/2 cups Jasmin Rice
1 bag Teriyaki Stir Fry veggies from Sam's Club
2 Tablespoons Oil
2 Large Cloves Garlic, minced
1/3 cup Water
Teriyaki sauce packet
1 cup shredded chicken, if desired
4 eggs, scrambled with a little salt and pepper
1 Tablespoons sesame oil
1/4 cup Soy Sauce

Bring chicken broth, butter, and salt to a boil.   Add rice.  Stir, cover, and simmer for 17 minutes.

While rice is cooking, stir fry veggies in oil and garlic.  I like to heat up the wok to 350 with oil.  Add veggies to wok and cook stirring for 1 minute.

Add water, cover and simmer  for 4 minutes.

Stir in Teriyaki sauce nad chicken if desired.  Add cooked rice and scrambled eggs.

Stir in Sesame oil and soy sauce.

Note:  If using Kale, remove thick center steam all the way up the leaf, then chop leave.
