Blackstone Chicken Fried Rice

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients
  

  • 4 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 cup onion finely diced
  • 1 cup mixed peas and carrots
  • 2 cups chicken breast or tenderloins cubed into bite-size pieces
  • 4 cups jasmine rice pre-cooked and cooled
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 4 eggs
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ teaspoon MSG (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your griddle on high to about 400 F. If you can, keep the temperature on one side set low so you can move things around while you're cooking
  2. Add a tablespoon of oil to the griddle and use your spatula to spread it around. Add the onion, peas, and carrots and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion starts to soften
  3. Push the vegetables to the side with the lower heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the griddle and add the cooled rice in a thin layer. Season with salt and pepper and let it cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes. Then use your spatula to mix it together and break up any clumps. Slide the rice to the side and mix in the vegetables
  4. Add 1 tablespoons of oil to a clear area of the griddle. Add the chicken, then season with salt, pepper, and granulated garlic (or garlic powder). The small pieces of chicken will cook quickly. When cooked, add to the fried rice
  5. Add the soy sauce and sesame oil to the chicken fried rice. Mix together well and let it cook for 3-5 minutes
  6. Pour beated eggs onto a clear area of the grill. Cook the eggs and then mix in with the fried rice until everything is incorporated. If you are using MSG, sprinkle it on now and mix a little more
  7. Remove the chicken fried rice from the griddle, sprinkle with thinly sliced scallions, and serve with Yum Yum sauce or Japanese BBQ sauce

Notes

  • I like to use Jasmine rice for this recipe, but any kind of long grain rice will work.
  • Make sure you’re tasting along the way. Feel free to add some extra oil, soy sauce, salt pepper, garlic, etc. based on your own preferences.
  • Mix in whatever veggies you have on hand or swap out the chicken for steak or shrimp
