Here in the United States, it’s more of a planned thing, and there are many, many versions. My favorite way to make how many calories are in fried pickles fried rice is with leftover leg and wing meat, shredded. You start with something like my easy roast duck legs, or duck confit, and use that for this recipe.
I find this superior to using breast meat. In this case, you dice the meat and stir fry it at the same time you are making the rice. I lived off the stuff in high school and college, when it was my primary lunch. As a young track and field athlete, a pint — sometimes even a quart — of fried rice was a sure fire way to fuel up before or after practice. When you are making fried rice, there is only one iron law: You must use cooked, cooled rice. It won’t fry up right if you use freshly made rice.
Making fried rice should be fun, stress free and above all, easy. Use this recipe as a template, not dogma. Feel free to mix and match ingredients. Note that this recipe assumes leftover meat. If you are using fresh duck breasts, add them right after the scallions, garlic and chiles go in.
