It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Cubed chicken, fresh broccoli, and shredded carrots pack this fried rice recipe full of flavor. Perfect as a main dish.

3/4 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
4 tablespoons soy sauce, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cup chopped fresh broccoli
3 green onions, sliced
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
3 large carrots, shredded
4 cups cold cooked rice
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
In a bowl, combine the chicken, 1 tablespoon soy sauce and garlic; set aside. In a large skillet or wok, stir-fry the broccoli and green onions in 1 tablespoon oil for 5 minutes. Add carrots; stir-fry 4 minutes longer or until crisp-tender. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, stir-fry chicken in remaining oil until no longer pink and juices run clear. Add the rice, pepper, vegetables and remaining soy sauce. Stir-fry until heated through.

Very good. This is definitely hearty enough to be the main course, or scale it down to be a side dish. Very easy to put together and cook. Instead of shredding the carrots I bought pre-julienned carrots which worked great.
