Cuban Fried Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Beat the eggs with a whisk, adding soy sauce and chicken broth.
• Heat a tablespoon or 2 of oil in a 5-quart or large saute pan or wok, rolling the oil around to coat bottom and sides.

• Decrease heat to med-low and cook thoroughly, flipping once.

• In the same pan, add a little more oil and saute the onion and green pepper over med-low heat until the onion is soft and translucent.
• Decrease heat to low and add the minced garlic; continue to cook for 1-2 minutes more; don't let the garlic brown.
• Add in the rice and a little more oil; fry for about 5 minutes, stirring often.
• Add in some chicken stock, enough to flavor the rice, but not enough to make it soupy.
• Add the rest of the scrambled eggs and a dash or two of soy sauce; add in the diced lechon and stir sparingly; continue cooking 5 minutes.

• Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for a minute or two; serve hot.
