Chicken fried rice is an indo chinese version of fried rice where boneless chicken strips are added into the fried rice. Rice is fried and sauteed well and this is the perfect chicken fried rice recipe that is served in fast food centres and restaurants. The Basmati rice with chicken and vegetables is a combination you will make over and over! Once you try this fried rice, you’ll never want to get takeout from a restaurant again.
