Homemade Chinese at Home

Yes... I did it!  I made homemade Chinese, or should I say Hibachi at home!  It was fantastic.  I was craving the fried rice from this Hibachi restaurant that I love to go to but I wasn't in the mood to go out.  I just wanted to in the comfort of my own home.  Eating my favorite food.  In PJs. 

I found this recipe that sounded delicious and it was my first time trying Hibachi fried rice so I thought what the hec!?  I'll try it!

Here is what I did differently:  I used jasmine rice and added 2 cloves of minced garlic.   Everything else stayed the same and it was super delicious.

I knew that my husband would have complained if I didn't have some sort of protein so I cut up chicken into cubes and sauteed with some EVOO, 1 clove of minced garlic and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce.  It was an excellent compliment to the fried rice. 

This is a keeper!!
