Do you think with jasmine rice the recipe would be the same?

[@TheForeignFork]

Hello! Yes it will work exactly the same :)

[@CaboWabotv]

jasmine and basmati are too aromatic. plain white rice works best in fried rice

[@juliachambers725]

This recipe is awesome! I’m not great cook 👩‍🍳 but after my son said: “ mom it slaps!” I’m like Yey . Thank you. This recipe SLAPS

[@toniesquire7037]

Excellent! Looks delicious and easy to make.

[@tracylow-xk4fy]

Followed your recipe tonight for my fussy 9 year old and everyone loved it! It will be a weekly fave in our house

[@UniquelyGeeky]

One idea I thought of to avoid the hassle of working hard to scrape the cooked egg off the bottom of the pot and will also save a lot of time, is scramble the eggs in a microwave safe bowl, mug, or a paper bowl. Grease the bowl with olive oil or whichever oil you prefer, crack eggs, stir till blended, heat in microwave on high for 30 seconds, take out and stir again, cook on high 20 seconds, repeat another 20 seconds if they’re not quite done yet. This method will be especially helpful to those with arthritis or weakness from health issues.

I'm old... and trying to learn how to cook. Tried this tonight and it came out great! Thanks for the excellent recipe and easy no-hassle directions.

[@TheForeignFork]

Thanks a lot!

i have long grain brown rice, would it still be the same cook time?

[@TheForeignFork]

Yes, you can! If you’d like to use brown rice, simply sub out the white rice for brown rice. Keep the amount of chicken broth in the pressure cooker the same. Brown rice is tougher than white rice, though, which means it needs to cook longer in order to soften. You should cook your brown rice for 20 minutes in order to achieve the desired texture. In this case, I would recommend cooking your meat separately and adding it into the Instant Pot at the end, with the veggies and egg. You don’t want to overcook your chicken by cooking it for 20 minutes. For more help, you can read the article at: foreignfork.com/instant-pot-chicken-fried-rice/

Nice

[@TheForeignFork]

Thank you!

[@brookebentley690]

can you use ground chicken instead?

[@TheForeignFork]

Yes absolutely!

[@lauralutz4538]

I think I’ll scramble my eggs first then add them.

[@cookiemonstergrl7]

When you naturally release the rice, do you turn off the instant pot and then wait the extra 6 minutes? then release? Sorry lol

[@TheForeignFork]

I don't turn it off! I just allow the pot to count down for 6 minutes and then release when the 6 minutes is done. Then I turn the pot off after :)

[@lauralutz4538]

Maybe add veg oil to screaming hot pot first then scramble eggs & add them to the oil.

[@inezcalley5968]

Can you add scrimp instead of chicken?

[@CaboWabotv]

sure

[@alanwheel8987]

Add a large metal clip or clothespin to the top of the pan so it will not spin while stirring...!!!

[@TheForeignFork]

Such a good idea! Thank you!

[@shawnmcpherson4422]

Could I double this recipe?

[@TheForeignFork]

Yes absolutely! No need to change the cook time.

[@JenLuvs2Jazz]

Did you rinse the rice?

[@TheForeignFork]

I don't but you can if you prefer!

[@aheartofworship27]

I like to rinse the rice. Remove the starch and prevent clumpy rice.

[@cwm1114141]

rice came out sticky what did i do wrong??

[@joshuacarter7729]

I literally followed exact directions and rice burned.. Tried saving it with no luck.. What did I do wrong!??

[@TheForeignFork]

Sorry to hear that Joshua!! Did you get up all of the egg off of the bottom of the instant pot? That normally is what causes a burn notice... another factor could be altitude? If you want to try again but are worried about getting the burn notice again you can add a bit more chicken broth!

[@dustinw5413]

I had the same issue. All the egg was scraped off too and I followed the directions 100%.

[@lgarza186]

Family? You mean me.

[@redditbrown8053]

"This recipe will take you a max of 12 minutes to make" "Marinate your chicken for at least an hour" 🤨

[@TheForeignFork]

Haha as a food blogger/recipe developer it's always hard to know whether to include marination time in the recipe timing. General consensus is no, but I can see how that's not ideal!
