YUM: Pork Fried Rice


I'm a big fan of Chinese food. I love it even more when it can be made with less grease--and a bit more healthy. I tried this Pork Fried Rice dish from Family Circle. This will definitely been on the dinner table again in the next couple months.

Pork Fried Rice

Makes: 4 servings
Cook: 6-1/2 minutes
Prep: 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 pound boneless, center-cut pork chops, fat trimmed and cut into 1/4-inch strips
  • 2 scallions, trimmed and sliced
  • 2 packages (8.8 ounces each) fully cooked brown rice
  • 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil

Directions

1. Coat a 12-inch nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add beaten egg and let cook, undisturbed, for 1 minute. Use a large silicone spatula to flip over egg and cook an additional 30 seconds, until cooked through. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into 2 x 1/2-inch strips.

2. Increase heat under skillet to medium-high and add pork. Cook 3 minutes, until no longer pink, then add scallions, brown rice and peas. Cover with a sheet of foil and cook an additional 2 minutes. Stir in egg, soy sauce and sesame oil and heat through. Serve warm.
