Fried Rice

"The best homemade fried rice you can make! The bacon may be
non-traditional, but it adds a little extra CRUNCH. Great with chicken or
beef."

Prep Time:10 Minutes
Cook Time:30 Minutes
Ready In:40 Minutes


1 1/3 cups uncooked white rice
1 2/3 cups water
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
1/4 pound bacon, cut into strips
1/8 cup soy sauce
1 (10 ounce) package frozen green peas, thawed
2 green onions, chopped


In a saucepan bring water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover
and simmer for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, season eggs with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 teaspoon oil in small frying pan, pour in eggs. Coat the bottom of
the pan with the eggs, in order to cook them evenly; cook for about 3
minutes. Flip the eggs, cook one minute more and remove them to a cool
surface. Let them cool, then cut them into thin slices. Set aside. Place
bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly
brown. Drain, crumble and set aside. Spoon remaining 2 teaspoons oil into
the skillet with the bacon fat. Stir in rice; break up any clumps and toss
to coat with oil. Stir in bacon, soy sauce, peas, eggs and green onions.
Stir and cook until heated through, approximately 3 minutes.
