No reviews

A restaurant-quality hibachi-style chicken fried rice made on an outdoor flat-top griddle for maximum flavor and crispiness.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

4 cups cooked white rice (cold, day-old)
1 lb chicken breast or thighs, diced into bite-sized pieces
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
1/2 medium white onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 green onions, sliced
Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat and apply a thin layer of vegetable oil across the surface.
Step 2: Place the diced chicken on one side of the griddle. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, tossing occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 3: On the other side of the griddle, sauté the onions, peas, and carrots in a little oil until the onions are translucent and the carrots are tender.
Step 4: Clear a space in the center, add the butter, and then spread the cold rice over it. Let the rice sit for 1-2 minutes without moving it to create a crispy texture.
Step 5: Pour the soy sauce and oyster sauce over the rice. Use your spatulas to toss the rice, breaking up any clumps and ensuring it is evenly coated.
Step 6: Push the rice mixture to the side and pour the beaten eggs onto the griddle. Scramble them quickly with your spatula.
Step 7: Combine the chicken, vegetables, rice, and eggs together. Drizzle with toasted sesame oil and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

Always use cold, day-old rice for the best texture. If using fresh rice, spread it on a baking sheet and freeze for 20 minutes to dry it out.
