Hawaiian-Style Bacon Fried Rice image

HAWAIIAN FRIED RICE



Hawaiian Fried Rice image

This is kind of a loaded fried rice, the way that we used to like it in Hawaii.

Provided by Vicki Butts (lazyme)

Categories     Rice Sides

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp hot sauce
1/2 Tbsp vegetable oil, divided
2 c diced ham
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
6 green onions, diced, white and green parts separated
3 garlic cloves, minced
5 c cooked rice, cold
3 large eggs
1 c pineapple chunks

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, sesame oil and hot sauce. Set aside.
  • 2. In a large, non-stick skillet, heat 1/2 of the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced ham, red bell pepper and the chopped white parts of the green onions. Cook and stir for 5 to 7 minutes, or until ham is browned and bell pepper is crisp-tender. Stir in the garlic and cook another minute. Pour this mixture into a bowl, and set aside.
  • 3. Heat the remaining vegetable oil in the same skillet until hot, and then add the cold rice. Cook and stir rice, breaking up the clumps. Cook until rice is thoroughly heated, about 8 minutes.
  • 4. Push the rice to one side of the skillet. Crack the eggs onto the other side of skillet and stir until lightly scrambled and set. Stir the eggs and the ham mixture into the rice. Pour the soy sauce mixture into the rice and cook, stirring until combined and hot.
  • 5. Turn off the heat, stir in the pineapple and green parts of the onions.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: This will help the rice to fry up nicely and not become mushy.
  • Cook the rice in chicken broth: This will give the rice a savory flavor.
  • Use a wok or large skillet: This will allow you to easily stir-fry the rice and vegetables.
  • Heat the wok or skillet over high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the rice and vegetables.
  • Add the rice and vegetables to the wok or skillet in batches: This will prevent the rice from becoming mushy.
  • Stir-fry the rice and vegetables until they are heated through: This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Season the rice with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil: This will give the rice a delicious flavor.
  • Serve the rice immediately: This is when it is at its best.

Conclusion:

Hawaiian fried rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. With its combination of savory rice, tender vegetables, and flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
