Pineapple Fried Rice

Lately I have been interested in making restaurant-inspired dishes for a few reasons. 1) We are trying to eat out less and enjoy more time at home with our baby. 2) It's really fun to recreate things and know exactly what is going into them rather than being at the mercy of strangers. 3) We both really enjoy eating Asian food and have been disappointed at every local place we have tried. With this in mind, I was craving Asian food recently and decided to make this dish. It turned out great and my hubby declared that whenever we want Asian food we're just gonna make it here at home! Enjoy!



Ingredients:
3 c. cooked rice
3/4 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces
Vegetable oil
1 Tbsp. onion powder
1/2 c. chopped red bell pepper
1/2 c. frozen peas
1 c. pineapple tidbits, drained
4 Tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
1 Tbsp. sesame oil
Salt to taste


In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium high heat.
Add chicken that has been seasoned with salt and saute until brown and cooked through.
Add onion powder and bell pepper; cook until pepper is softened.
Add pineapple and frozen peas; cook 2-3 minutes.
Add rice, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
Mix gently until everything is combined; serve immediately.
