Recipe Tips

To save time, you can use pre-cooked chicken or a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. You can also use leftover rice from a previous meal instead of cooking it fresh. Make sure to use cold rice, as it will fry better than warm or hot rice. Finally, if you want to make this dish vegetarian, you can substitute the chicken with tofu or omit it altogether.
