Chicken Teriyaki Brown Fried Rice - This one pot meal is filled with lots of of veggies and makes a delicious easy dinner idea! | The Love Nerds AD MealsWithMinuteEvery once in awhile, I decide to tackle something brand new that I am nervous about making. The reasons don’t always make sense as to why I am intimidated but fried rice has always been one of those things. When we haved enjoyed fried rice at home in the past, it came from a frozen bag or a takeout box. But not this time! I was surprised at home simple the process was to make this batch of Chicken Teriyaki Brown Rice compared to what I had built up in my mind. Plus – it was so delicious!! I think we have a new family fave!

For the base of my Chicken Teriyaki Fried Rice, I used Minute® Brown Rice.  Minute® Rice is a staple in our cabinet, and brown rice is definitely my preferred type. It is 100% whole grain brown rice which makes it a nutritious option and it has a rich, nutty flavor. It’s perfect as a side next to your main course which is how we use it more often or as the base for this recipe! Plus, it’s ready in 10 minutes which makes it family friendly for busy weeknight dinners. I know we can all appreciate that.

As someone that works from home, there are only so many peanut butter sandwiches or salads I can eat in a week. It’s fun being able to recook this fried rice for lunch and break the monotony – even if I still have a salad on the side. Plus, this batch gives the two of us multiple dinners and I feel awesome about all the veggies (and even some fruit) that we’re eating. When eating as leftovers, I sometimes microwave (more when I’m in a rush) or I add a real thin layer of olive oil to a skillet and lightly cook the recipe up again until warm.
