Yield Serves 4 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 18

For marinade
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
2 skinless boneless chicken breast halves (about 3/4 pound total)
1 red onion
1 large red bell pepper
1/2 pound snow peas
3 tablespoons fermented black beans
2 1/2 tablespoons corn or safflower oil
For seasoning liquid
1 tablespoon chicken broth
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons Chinese rice wine or sake
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
5 cups chilled Chinese-style white or brown rice
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced peeled fresh gingerroot

Steps:

  • Make marinade:
  • In a small bowl stir together marinade ingredients. Add chicken to marinade, turning it to coat. Marinate chicken at room temperature while preparing vegetables. Cut onion and bell pepper into 1/4-inch dice. Trim snow peas and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices. Rinse black beans and mince.
  • Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry. Discard marinade. In a heavy non-stick skillet heat 1/2 tablespoon corn or safflower oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté chicken until browned on bottom, about 4 minutes. Turn chicken over and cook over moderate heat 6 minutes, or until just cooked through. Transfer chicken to a plate and cool completely. Recipe may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and ingredients chilled separately in sealable plastic bags.
  • Cut chicken into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • Make seasoning liquid:
  • In a small bowl stir together seasoning liquid ingredients.
  • Spread rice in a shallow baking pan and separate grains with a fork.
  • In a deep 12-inch heavy non-stick skillet heat remaining 2 tablespoons corn or safflower oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and stir-fry black beans, garlic, and gingerroot 20 seconds, or until fragrant. Add onion and bell pepper and stir-fry 2 minutes. Add snow peas, chicken, and rice and cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through. Stir seasoning liquid and add to fried rice, tossing to coat evenly.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: This will help the rice stay separate and fluffy when fried.
  • Chop your vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will give you plenty of room to stir-fry the rice and vegetables.
  • Heat your skillet or wok over high heat: This will help create a nice sear on the rice and vegetables.
  • Stir-fry the rice and vegetables in batches: This will help prevent them from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of frying.
  • Add the sauce and eggs towards the end of cooking: This will help prevent the eggs from overcooking.
  • Serve immediately: Fried rice is best served hot and fresh.
