Garlic Pepper Fried Rice W Beef Or Chicken Food

GARLIC FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small glass dish in the microwave. Add the minced garlic and lemon juice to the melted butter and stir to combine. Set aside to allow the flavors to mingle.
• This dish comes together so fast that EVERYTHING needs to be chopped, measured, and ready to add. Chop the onions and scallions then measure out the peas/carrots, ham, rice, and soy sauce. Finally, you should beat the eggs in a small bowl.
• In a large, non-stick skillet, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until soft - about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the peas and carrots and cook about 3 minutes then add the diced ham or chicken. Cook 1 minute. Push all of the contents of the skillet to one side to keep them from cooking too much. On the empty side of the skillet, add the beaten eggs. Season with a little salt and pepper and scramble until just set. Integrate the eggs with the veggies and move everything back to the edge of the skillet. Quickly add the garlic mixture to the pan and use a spatula to break it up. Cook it about 1 minute or so (longer if you do not want an intense, in-your-face garlic bite). If you are worried about the strong flavor of garlic, you can add the same amount of garlic but add it with the peas and carrots. This will give the garlic ample time to mellow and sweeten by the name everything is cooked.
• Add the cold, cooked rice and mix it in with the other ingredients. Add the soy sauce and stir to combine. Stir it every 30 seconds for about 2 minutes. Add the scallions and stir. Taste for seasoning and add salt, pepper, and/or additional soy sauce, if desired. Stir one last time and transfer everything to a serving bowl.

BEEF OR CHICKEN FRIED RICE (ASIAN)

Steps:

• Slice beef or chicken breast into thin strips.
• For the marinade; combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, one minced clove of garlic, and red chili.
• Marinate meat for several hours (over night is best).
• Thinly slice green onions and coarsely chop the green tops. Separate, as they will go in at different times.
• Grate the carrots.
• Slice the dried chilies lengthwise.
• Scramble the eggs lightly in a bowl.
• Heat the oil in a wok or deep pan.
• Fry the eggs until set, remove and slice into strips.
• Add the garlic and sliced green onions (white part) and the sliced red chilies to the hot oil, sauté for a minute or so, then add the marinated meat, reserving the marinade (beef only). If you're cooking chicken, don't reserve the marinade; just add some soy sauce in its place later in the process.
• Stir fry the meat until cooked, and then remove.
• Add the chilled, cooked rice to the hot oil and stir fry until heated thoroughly.
• Add the meat, green onion tops, carrots, egg slices, and some or all of the the reserved marinade (or equal amount of soy sauce if you used chicken, about 1/4 cup).
• Stir fry until all is heated through.
• Serve immediately.

GARLIC PEPPER FRIED RICE W/ BEEF OR CHICKEN

Steps:

• STEP 1.
• In a hot wok, add the first tablespoon of oil and scramble the eggs, chopping them into bite size or smaller pieces while they cook.
• When the eggs are cooked, remove them and set them aside in a clean dish.
• Remove any bits of egg from the wok before moving on to the next step.
• STEP 2.
• In the same wok, quickly combine the second tablespoon of oil, garlic, crushed red pepper and meat, in that order. **If you wait long enough that you can smell the garlic warming before you add the other ingredients, you will burn your garlic. If you hesitate any at all to add the meat after adding the red pepper, it will burn and your lungs will feel like they are closing on you. DO NOT ASK HOW I KNOW! **
• When the meat is cooked, remove it and set it aside in a clean dish.
• STEP 3.
• Still in the same wok, add the last tablespoon of oil and onion.
• Once the onion begins to become translucent add the peas and carrots.
• After the peas and carrots look as if they have thawed, add the cooked rice and drizzle the soy sauce in three or four portions over the rice. After adding each portion of the soy sauce, toss to coat the rice with soy sauce. More than flavor, we're looking to color the rice evenly. More or less than ¼ cup of soy sauce may be necessary. I like a nice, even, golden brown color. That color seems to flavor the rice best. (If you like a darker fried rice, a few drops of dark soy sauce will go a long way for adding the desired color, but it adds no flavor.).
• Once the rice has the right color, add the eggs from step 1 and the meat, garlic, red pepper mix from step 2, and combine all thoroughly. Stir constantly until rice is evenly heated.
• Serve in bowls with extra soy sauce available to season to taste.
