Combine Rice and Sauces
Garnish and Serve
Replace chicken with 200g of cubed firm tofu or paneer. For a vegan version, use tofu and ensure your Schezwan sauce is vegan.
Substitute chicken with 250g of peeled and deveined prawns. Add them after the vegetables and cook just until they turn pink and curl up (about 2-3 minutes).
Omit the chicken. After sautéing the aromatics, push them to one side of the wok. Pour in 2 lightly beaten eggs and scramble them. Then, mix with the aromatics and proceed with the recipe.
The chicken provides high-quality lean protein, which is essential for muscle repair, growth, and overall body function.
Rice is a primary source of complex carbohydrates, which are broken down slowly to provide a steady release of energy throughout the day.
The variety of vegetables like carrots, capsicum, and beans contributes essential vitamins (like A and C), minerals, and dietary fiber, supporting immune function and digestive health.
Ingredients like ginger, garlic, and chilies (in the Schezwan sauce) contain compounds that can provide a slight boost to your metabolism and offer anti-inflammatory benefits.
One serving (approximately 2 cups or 410g) of this Chicken Schezwan Fried Rice contains around 550-600 calories, depending on the specific sauces and amount of oil used.
It can be part of a balanced diet. It offers a good mix of protein from chicken, carbohydrates from rice, and vitamins from vegetables. However, it can be high in sodium and fat due to the sauces and oil. To make it healthier, use low-sodium soy sauce, increase the amount of vegetables, and use oil sparingly.
Long-grain rice like Basmati or Jasmine is ideal. They cook up fluffy and the grains stay separate, which is perfect for fried rice. Avoid short-grain or sticky rice.
This is usually caused by using freshly cooked, warm rice. The excess moisture and starch cause the grains to clump together and steam instead of fry. Always use cold, day-old rice for the best results.
Absolutely. The heat comes from the Schezwan sauce and green chilies. Simply reduce the amount of Schezwan sauce to 1-2 tablespoons and omit the green chilies to control the spice level.
