Fried rice is a true comfort food and our version is speedy as well. Ready in just 20 minutes, this recipe features all the of the classic elements in the Chinese fried rice dishes found in America. Tender peas and crisp-tender carrots, tender scrambled egg and a hint of soys sauce in nutty brown rice. Stir-frying the dish keeps the cooking to one pan and also makes the process faster. Try this with a crispy cabbage salad or serve smaller portions as a side dish to some grilled fish or roasted chicken. Stir in other favorite vegetables to amp up the rice.
