15 Minute Sheet Pan Chicken Fried Rice Food

ONE SHEET PAN CHICKEN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Grease a large baking sheet and preheat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange chicken pieces on pan in a single layer so they aren't overlapping and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 5 minutes.
• Remove pan from oven, pour whisked eggs around the chicken pieces directly onto the pan. Return to oven for 3-5 minutes until egg is fully cooked. Use a fork or spatula to "scramble" the egg so that it breaks up into small pieces.
• Add rice and peas, carrots and white onions to pan and toss all ingredients so they are evenly distributed. Drizzle sesame oil and soy sauce over everything and toss again. Sprinkle chopped onions over the top.
• Bake for 5 minutes longer. Chicken should be cooked through and rice should begin to brown on the bottom of the pan.
• Toss all ingredients one more time and serve immediately.

SHEET PAN CHICKEN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray.
• Dice the raw chicken, carrots, bell pepper, and onion. You want the chicken to be in 1/2 or 1 inch pieces. The carrots should be diced pretty small, they cook the slowest. The smaller they are diced the faster they will cook. See photos.
• Add the chicken, carrots, bell pepper, and onion to the prepared sheet pan.
• In a small bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the garlic, salt, ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Add 1/4 cup of this mixture to the chicken and veggies on the pan (the rest will be mixed into the rice). Toss the chicken and veggies with your hands or a wooden spoon to get it all coated. Spread it out evenly.
• Roast in the oven for 6 minutes.
• Pour the remaining butter/soy sauce mixture over your day-old rice. (don't bother washing the small bowl) Stir it together and break up the rice if there are chunks. Set aside.
• In the same small bowl that you mixed the butter in, whisk together 4 eggs and season with a bit of salt and pepper.
• After 6 minutes, take the pan out of the oven and use a spatula to move the chicken and veggies over so that 1/4 of the pan is empty (see photos). Pour the eggs directly on the pan.
• Return the pan to the oven and bake for 3-4 minutes. Keep an eye on it!
• When the eggs are just barely set, take the pan out and use a spatula to "scramble" the eggs. Break them up and mix it in with the chicken and veggies.
• Add the rice on top of the chicken and spread evenly.
• Bake at 425 for 15 minutes.
• Toss everything together with a spatula and bake for another 15 minutes, until the rice is looking a bit browned on top and there isn't too much moisture on the bottom of the pan. Test one of the carrots to see if it is tender.
• Toss in the frozen peas and stir. The peas should thaw very quickly, but if you are worried about it, pop the pan back in the oven for another minute or two to make sure the peas are warmed.
• Garnish with green onions and cilantro. Serve hot! This would be delicious served with Asian Marinated Cucumber Salad.

15-MINUTE SHEET PAN CHICKEN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F (use convection if you have it), line a sheet pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup, evenly scatter the chicken, drizzle with oil, season with pepper, toss to evenly coat the chicken, and bake for about 10 minutes, or until chicken is just cooked through.
• Remove sheet pan from the oven, add the rice, peas and carrots (I added straight from the freezer and didn't thaw), soy sauce, toss to mix and coat evenly, return the pan to the oven, and bake for 2 to 3 minutes.
• While the chicken and rice cook, scramble the eggs on the stove.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven, add the scrambled eggs, and stir to combine. Tip - If the rice seems dry at all, add a touch more soy sauce as necessary and stir to combine.
• Add the green onions, stir to combine, and serve immediately. Extra will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Generously spray 18x13-inch rimmed sheet pan with cooking spray. In medium bowl, toss chicken, teriyaki sauce, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the chili garlic sauce and the garlic.
• Add chicken mixture to sheet pan, spreading evenly. Bake 7 to 9 minutes, stirring halfway through bake time, until chicken is no longer pink in center. Remove mixture from pan to small bowl; cover and keep warm. Spread carrots and whites of green onions evenly in pan; bake 6 to 8 minutes or until vegetables start to soften.
• In medium bowl, mix rice, thawed peas, soy sauce, oil and remaining 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce. Add rice mixture to vegetable mixture in pan; mix well, spreading evenly. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until rice starts to brown; remove from oven, and stir in chicken.
• Create 6 wells in rice mixture. Gently crack an egg into each well; bake 7 to 9 minutes or until egg yolk and whites are firm. Garnish with sesame seed and greens of green onion. Drizzle with Sriracha sauce.

SHEET PAN FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Toss together the rice, white and light green parts of the sliced scallions, carrots, peas, garlic, ginger, vegetable oil, soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil in a large bowl until the rice is completely coated. Spread on a sheet pan and bake until the rice begins to toast on the outer edges, about 15 minutes. Toss the rice on the sheet pan using a metal spatula, scraping up any stuck-on pieces. Drizzle the eggs over the rice and nestle in the shrimp. Continue baking until the shrimp and eggs are cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes more. Top with the sesame seeds and reserved dark green scallions and divide among 4 plates. Serve with sriracha on the side.

SHEET-PAN KIMCHI FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Place the rice in a sieve and rinse it under cold running water, shaking constantly, just a few seconds. Add the rinsed rice and 2 cups cold water to a rice cooker or medium pot and soak for 10 minutes. If using a rice cooker, turn it on and cook rice until soft and fluffy. If using a pot, bring the water to a simmer over high heat, then reduce the heat to very low, cover and continue simmering, without peeking, for 20 minutes; remove the pot from the heat and let the rice finish steaming, still covered, until the grains are soft, distended and a little shiny, about 10 minutes. Uncover your cooked rice, fluff with a fork and set aside.
• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 425 degrees.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, gochujang, kimchi juice, soy sauce and sugar. Season generously with salt, then stir in the chopped kimchi and onion. Add the cooked rice, butter and seaweed and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt.
• Transfer the rice mixture to a large rimmed sheet pan and spread out loosely. Bake until the top of the rice is crispy and chewy but not burned, 25 to 30 minutes, opening the oven door halfway through (to check on it, but also to let excess moisture out during the cooking).
• Remove the pan from the oven. Using a spoon, create 6 shallow depressions in the rice. Crack the eggs into the depressions and place the pan back in the oven until the egg whites have just set, 3 to 6 minutes. Serve immediately, while the eggs are still runny.
