Chicken Fried Rice

Whenever I give surprise to my daughter by packing chicken fried rice for her lunch, I get lots n lots of hugs & kisses in the evening. My sweety pie's expression with the answer to the question 'how's it baby? ' would be like amazing.....for that I would love to make chicken fried rice all 365 days.....:-)

Here's my simple recipe.
