Using chilled, cooked rice is the preferred way of making fried rice because it helps keep the more firm texture of the rice. The bacon adds flavor without making this a heavy dish. It's perfect served alongside egg rolls, sweet and sour pork, or chicken chow mein.

ingredients

3/4 pound bacon
4 tablespoons oil, divided
3 eggs
4 cups cold cooked rice
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped green onions

directions

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, turning as needed, until crisp. Remove the bacon from the skillet and let drain on paper toweling. Cut the bacon into 1/4-inch pieces and set aside.

Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a wok or deep skillet. Beat the eggs until uniform in color. Add to the hot wok and cook the eggs, constantly stirring, until well scrambled. Remove the egg from the wok and set aside.

Wipe out the wok. Add the remaining oil to the wok. When hot, add the rice and cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce, salt, and green onions. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Stir in the bacon.

Serve immediately.
