This fried rice is absolutely AMAZING!!!! I served it with lettuce wraps but everyone kept going back for more rice. I think the bacon sends it over the edge. I think I need to go make more now!
Bacon Fried Rice
Recipe slightly adapted from Taste of Home
1 tsp canola oil
1 egg, beaten
1 lb bacon, chopped
1 cup mushrooms, chopped
8 green onions, sliced
3 cups cooked rice
1 cup bean sprouts
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/4 cup soy sauce
Heat oil in a wok. Pour egg into wok. As egg sets, lift edges letting uncooked portion flow underneath. When egg is done, move to plate and set aside.
In same wok, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon to paper towels. Reserve 2 TBSP drippings.
Saute mushrooms and onions in bacon drippings. Stir in rice, bean sprouts, peas, soy sauce, and bacon. Chop egg into small pieces; stir into wok and heat through.
Yum! Great side for lettuce wraps!!
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm definitely trying this, but I have some pancetta that I need to use so I'm going to use that! Grumpy will be tickled....maybe I'll make his favorite Honey Walnut Shrimp to go with and make him even happier! ;)
