2 eggs, beaten
1/3 cup low sodium soy sauce, more or less to taste

Here is how you make Chicken Fried Rice (American style):

--Boil chicken legs in a stockpot full of water until meat falls off bone. Reserve broth.--Cook rice in rice cooker, or according to package directions. Place rice in serving bowl and refrigerate.--Remove skin from chicken and throw away; remove meat from bone and shred into small pieces.--Heat large non-stick stir-fry pan on medium-high heat; do not add oil.--Combine rice, peas, water chestnuts, and chicken in heated stir-fry pan. Add around 2 cups of the chicken broth and mix until ingredients are evenly distributed and rice is moist.--Move rice to one side of pan and cook egg on the other side, until set. Chop egg into small pieces with spatula and mix them in.--Add soy sauce to taste; dish should be savory but not overpoweringly salty.--Serve (in bowl you refrigerated the rice in). --Great companion to other Chinese/Asian-American dishes, but watch portion sizes!--Even Healthier Variations: use brown rice, remove chicken skin before cooking, and/or add more vegetables.--Convenience Variations: use leftover chicken and store-bought broth, and/or leftover rice.--Makes about 10 1-cup servings; two cups is a hearty meal.Number of Servings: 10Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user GIANTSINTHESKY.
