Chicken Fried Rice

1 lb. bacon
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in chunks
1/2 -1 cup chopped carrots
1/2 -1 cup chopped celery
1 chopped green bell pepper
8 servings rice
6 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
8 Tbsp. Soy sauce
2 eggs

Cook bacon.  Remove it from the pan and crumble it.  Remove most of grease and add chicken to pan.  When chicken starts to cook, add carrots, celery, and green pepper.  Continue cooking until chicken is done and veggies are tender.  While chicken and veggies are cooking, cook 8 servings of rice.  Add Worcestershire and Soy Sauce.  Beat 2 eggs into rice mixture.  Mix rice with chicken and veggies.  Put bacon on top.

This recipe makes a ton so you might want to cut it in half.  Also, you might want to try leaving out the chicken and making it with Tiny Spicy Chicken. Enjoy!

Egg drop soup

I like to make this soup with the Egg rolls I posted. This soup serves about 4


Ingredients

  • 4 cups chicken broth, divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk

Directions

  1. Reserve 3/4 cup of chicken broth, and pour the rest into a large saucepan. Stir the salt, ginger and chives into the saucepan, and bring to a rolling boil. In a cup or small bowl, stir together the remaining broth and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and egg yolk together using a fork. Drizzle egg a little at a time from the fork into the boiling broth mixture. Egg should cook immediately. Once the eggs have been dropped, stir in the cornstarch mixture gradually until the soup is the desired consistency.
