Can’t have soy or amines and are missing out on your favorite Asian-inspired dishes? This soy-free fried rice is seriously delicious and super flexible to boot. Do yourself a favor and make it for dinner tonight.

Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs (lightly scrambled)
  • 1 lb chicken breast (cut into small chunks)
  • 1/2 cup about 1 stalk celery, chopped
  • 1/2 cup green beans (cut into 1” pieces)
  • 1/3 cup chopped leeks
  • 1/2 tsp 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 6 cup cooked sushi or long grain white rice (chilled)
  • 1-2 tbsp water or failsafe broth
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2-3 tbsp canola (or other failsafe oil for frying)
  • 1-2 tbsp green onions for garnishing
  • OPTIONAL
  • 2-3 tbsp raw cashews (chopped into small pieces for garnishing (no more than 10 whole nuts for adults and 5 for children))
  • 1/2 cup green peas (frozen or fresh)
Instructions
  1. Prep all of your ingredients and have them ready before starting.
  2. Heat wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add in 1 tbsp canola oil and then add eggs to the wok. Scramble and then transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  3. Add more oil if necessary and add chicken to the wok. Sauté until chicken is cooked through, being careful not to brown it. Transfer to the bowl with your eggs and set aside.
  4. Add more oil if necessary and then add in celery, green beans, and leeks. Sauté for 2-3 minutes or until vegetables are crisp tender and bright green. Add in garlic and sauté for another minute more.
  5. Add in chilled rice, chicken, and eggs and another 1 tbsp of oil. Add in water if necessary to break up the rice and allow for easy mixing. Season to taste with salt (I used about 1/2 tsp). Add in green onions and remove from heat.
  6. OPTIONAL: Top with cashew pieces when serving. (See notes about serving sizes)
