Summary
Fried rice is one of the fastest, easiest meals you can make, and a great way to use up leftovers. Our vegetable-packed version calls for freshly cooked broccolini, snow peas, edamame, and chicken, but feel free to substitute any quick-cooking or leftover vegetables and protein. The simple orange-soy sauce adds acidity, sweetness, and an umami punch.
