Chicken "Fried" Rice

This is another favorite dish in my house. My kids will chow it down quick! Love having kid approved healthy meals!

Ingredients:

1 cup brown rice. (I suggest cooking this either the day before or earlier in the day)
2 boneless skinless chicken breast
3 eggs
1 cup shredded carrots
5-6 mushrooms sliced
1/2 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen broccoli
1/3 cup shelled edamame  (I cooked in the pods for the pics but didn't like the pods so I suggest no pods)
3 green onions
1/2 part low sodium soy sauce 1/2 part water equal parts. I did 1/4 cup each.
1/2 a medium white onion
A few cloves of garlic
Olive oil
Sea salt and pepper to taste



Cook the chicken add garlic and any salt and pepper for flavor and cut into small chunks


Prepare all vegetables.

Add the broccoli , carrots, mushrooms to a large pan. Cook for a few minutes before adding white onion, frozen peas and edamame. Once everything is cooked. remove from pan and transfer to a plate or bowl.

 
Scramble the three eggs. Add the eggs along with the green onions to the large non stick pan.
 


 Once the egg is cooked add the cooked chicken, and brown rice to the pan. You may want to add a lil extra virgin olive oil to the pan. Cook the rice until it slightly crispy.

 
Add back the cooked vegetables. Add the 1/2 water 1/2 low sodium soy sauce.

 
Mix the sauce mixture through out the ingredients.

 
Serve and enjoy!
