Chicken fried rice has earned its place as a household favourite because it delivers exactly what many home cooks are looking for.
Chicken fried rice is one of those meals that seems to solve several dinnertime problems at once.
On evenings when cooking feels like a chore and the fridge looks a little uninspiring, it can turn a container of leftover rice, some chicken from the night before and a handful of vegetables into something that feels like a proper meal rather than a collection of odds and ends.
It is no surprise that the dish has become a favourite in homes around the world.
While many people think of chicken fried rice as a takeaway treat, it is surprisingly simple to make at home, costs considerably less and can be adapted to suit whatever ingredients you already have on hand.
