Broiled Chicken with Bacon Over Egg Fried Rice Recipe

  • 2 skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces (8 to 10 ounces)
  • 1 bunch scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 bacon slices, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

  1. Preheat broiler.
  2. Toss chicken, scallions, and bacon with 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil and a scant 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a 4-sided sheet pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat, stirring once or twice, until chicken is just cooked through, about 10 minutes.

  4. Heat remaining 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil in skillet over medium-high heat until hot, then stir-fry rice until hot, about 5 minutes. Add egg and stir-fry 1 minute. Season with salt.
  5. Serve chicken with rice.
