Once you see how easy it is to make this chicken fried rice recipe, you will never want to order takeout again. The nice thing about the recipe is that it is so versatile. You can use virtually any type of vegetables you happen to have on hand, a great way to use those stray leftover veggies in your crisper. The harder and bigger the vegetable, such as broccoli or cauliflower florets, the longer it will need to cook, so allow extra time, if need be.
