Fried Rice that you actually bake in the oven. Can easily be adapted from a main dish to a side. Comes together fast and packed with flavor.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cook rice according to directions and set aside. Spray a large baking pan with non stick spray, and top with chicken pieces in a single layer. If using, add white onion. Season with salt and pepper. Bake chicken for 7 minutes
Remove baking pan from the oven, pour the whisked eggs around the chicken pieces. Return to the oven and and bake another 5 minutes until the egg has cooked. Remove pan again and with a spatula break up the eggs in small pieces.
Add the cooked rice, mixed vegetables and chickpeas. Mix all ingredients so they are evenly distributed. In a small bowl mix the sesame oil and soy sauce together. Drizzle over everything and mix everything again. Top with chopped onions.
Bake for 7 to 10 minutes longer until chicken is cooked through and rice is slightly brown on the bottom of the pan.
Recipe slightly adapted from Creme De La Crumb.
