The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Chicken Fried Rice

Mommy Invented

2 C cooked chicken
8 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 C minced onion
3 eggs, beaten
4 C cooked riced, COLD
1 C peas and carrots, cooked
1 TB olive oil
1/2 C soy sauce
1/2 C white cooking wine

Heat oil and soy sauce in large skillet.  Add cooking wine.  Stir fry the rice.  Push rice aside and scramble the eggs.  Mix in chicken and veggies.  Push to side, and brown onion and garlic.

We love chicken fried rice.  Our family has graduated to our two largest cast iron skillets for this meal.  It freezes well and warms up nicely if there are any leftovers.  Daddy likes to put crushed red pepper on this and he can really spice it up!  Mommy likes to add more soy sauce.  Lately we have been leaving out the egg so Joshua can enjoy this with us.  This is so very yummy!  I hope you can enjoy it with your family as well.
Love Always,
Mommy
