Oven-Fried Rice

[QSis]

just tried this tonight, but didn’t use any meat, and cut the recipe in half. LOVED it! Best, most authentic “fried rice” I’ve ever made at home! Wish I’d made the whole recipe!

Oven-Fried Rice

1/4 cup oil(or less)
1 lb cooked cubed pork, beef or chicken
1 green pepper
3 onions, chopped
1 (14 oz) can bean sprouts (or use fresh)
1 tsp brown sugar
1 (14 oz) can chicken broth
1 (8oz) can mushrooms (or fresh)
2 cups UNCOOKED rice
¼ cup soy sauce

Garnishes:
Green onions
Scrambled eggs

Optional: shrimp, pea pods, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots

In hot oil, sauté onions and peppers till light brown. Mix together all other ingredients except rice (do not cook the other ingredients, except for meats).

Put everything in a 13 x 9 inch pan and mix thoroughly. Cover with foil and cook for one hour at 350, stirring every 15 minutes.

Mix in chopped green onions and scrambled eggs just before serving.

Thanks Q - will have to try this.

It doesn't look like there's enough liquid - just the small can of chicken broth?

that looks really odd, but i'd be willing to give it a try. i suck at making rice, so maybe a new method would work.

thanks, qsis.

Well, I cut the recipe in half, and used a cup of broth and an 1/8 cup of soy sauce.

Maybe that's the secret to the rice coming out more like the restaurant's - less liquid. The grains weren't as puffy as regular rice, but they were fully cooked and tender.

It's a MIRACLE!!! LOL!

This sounds great; I appreciate you posting your recipes. In the future, would you mind specifying the sizes of the cans you're using? It would help our international members as well as the Americans, and some things come in three or more sizes. Thanks

Okay, GG, I went back and inserted what I'm guessing the can sizes are.

I posted the recipe as I found it, and didn't use anything in cans when I made mine.

Yes, Uncle Bob, this would be fantastic with the oven ribs!
