My husband and I both enjoyed this dish (AKA we went back for seconds) and I think I will be making fried rice more often. It took minimal prep time and cooked rather quickly. It would be the perfect solution to leftover rice they may be sitting in the fridge, actually I might make extra rice more often just so I can make this. :)
I did make a few slight modifications to this recipe but nothing to drastic or serious. I seasoned my chicken with salt, pepper and garlic powder before cooking it. I also left out the onion and subbed low sodium soy sauce for the teriyaki sauce.

This looks delicious! I love fried rice. I also think you can count it as a balanced meal :)
Fried rice is our catch all dish that allows us to dress up or down, depending on what we have to work with (like leftover chicken, pork, veggies, etc). Glad you liked it!
Looks great! If you don't like onions I bet scallions would have worked well in it's place! Chinese cuisine has been very difficult for me so I'm glad to hear it was easy.
I always worry about "authentic" fried rice also, but I've been told it's almost always authentic because of the nature of fried rice.
That looks delicious! I never think to make something like fried rice at home, but it looks so easy!
When recipes like this came to be -I doubt that anybody thought about authenticity - it tastes good - maybe you created the next recipe to die for. Looks pretty good to me.
Yummy, now I am craving fried rice!
