Spicy Pineapple Fried Rice

Spicy Pineapple Fried Rice

It’s happened a few times, I’ll go to the store on Sunday to get groceries for the week and end up getting a rotisserie Chicken so I don’t have to cook that night. Then, I’ll eat half of it and make Fried rice out of the leftovers the next day. This time I decided to add some seared Pineapple and red Jalapeno to give it that Sweet N Spicy thing and it worked great

Mise  

  • Rice Cooker
  • Two Pans
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Knife and Board

Ingredients

  • About two cups of Rice, rinsed, cooked and fluffed
  • Leftover rotisserie Chicken
  • One Pineapple, peeled, cored and cut
  • One Jalapeneo fine-chopped
  • About a quarter cup of Sesame oil 
  • Two eggs
  • Soy Sauce
  • Green Onion thin sliced for garnish

Method of Preparation

  • Make the rice, fluff it and let it cool down. 
  • Peel, core and chop the Pineapple and set aside
  • De-seed and chop the Jalapeno and set aside
  • Slice the green onion and (you guessed it) set aside.
  • Pick the meat off the Chicken and separate the skin.
  • Finely chop the skin and set aside. 
  • Heat up both pans to Med-High. In one, add the Pineapple and in the other, add about an ounce of the Sesame Oil and the two eggs. 
  • Scramble the eggs and add the rice while mixing well so you don’t have lumps. 
  • Add the Chicken skin to the rice, mix well then add the meat
  • When the Pineapple starts changing color, add the Jalapeno and let it cook
  • Add the Pineapple/Jalapeno to the rice and add a little Soy Sauce. 
  • Let the rice fry for a minute, stir it and let it develop. 

Notes

  • Don’t throw away the chicken carcass, cover it in water and make stock. 
  • If you have to, use canned Pineapple.
