Restaurant Quality Chinese Chicken Fried Rice
I created this recipe out of desperation last night when it was getting late and everyone was hungry now, so i call it one of my desperation dinners! It is really pretty and tastes as good as something you order in a restaurant! it was very cheap to make. you buy the chicken on sale and boil it and shred it and put in freezer in baggies till you need it and it's all ready to use in recipes at last minute! you can get the canned water chestnuts for $1 or less on sale and keep on hand in pantry! hope you like this as much as we do!
