Recipes Side Dish Rice Side Dish Recipes Pilaf Baked "Fried" Rice 4.6 (72) 63 Reviews 14 Photos This easy oven method for baked "fried" rice produces something very similar to classic fried rice, but you don't need leftover rice to make it. Just like rice pilaf, the grains of rice get coated in fat before absorbing the cooking liquid, ensuring plump, tender, separate grains with no sticky clumps. If using a different kind of rice or pan size, just adjust the cooking time. Garnish with green onions and serve with a runny poached egg on top if desired.

Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings 2 cups long-grain white rice 2 tablespoons canola oil 1 tablespoon sesame oil, or to taste 1 cup diced ham ½ cup sliced green onions ½ cup diced red bell peppers ½ cup diced carrots ½ cup green peas 3 cloves garlic, crushed 1 pinch salt 3 cups chicken broth 3 tablespoons soy sauce 2 teaspoons chile paste (Optional) Directions Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place rice in an 8x12-inch baking dish. Drizzle in canola and sesame oils, then toss rice until completely coated. Add ham, green onions, bell peppers, carrots, peas, garlic, and salt. Stir until well combined. Bring chicken broth, soy sauce, and chile paste to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Pour broth over rice and stir briefly. Cover the baking dish tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 32 minutes. Remove and let stand for 10 minutes. Increase the oven temperature to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Carefully remove the foil and fluff rice with a fork. Taste and adjust seasoning. Return to the oven and cook until rice is browned and crusty on top, about 10 minutes. Chef John Chef's Notes Substitute any vegetables; make sure to chop them fine so they fully cook.You can broil the rice for a few minutes instead of baking it in Step 5.Be careful! Some sesame oils are strong and can overpower the dish.Use Chinese barbecue pork instead of ham if preferred.
