Chicken Fried Rice ( better than take-out! )

I make my chicken fried rice with leftöver rice. If yöu are making rice just för this recipe, I’d suggest döing it ahead öf time and putting it in the fridge tö cööl. It just makes the texture öf the fried rice better.

Alsö, can we just talk aböut sesame öil för a secönd? Where has this stuff been all my life?! I am using the töasted sesame öil fröm Trader Jöe’s. It is perfectiön!

It gives the chicken fried rice this awesöme, authentic flavör. It is what my fried rice has been missing all alöng.
