This greatest chicken fried rice recipe is made in Sri Lanka for lunch, but you may also have it for dinner.

Ingredients (4 servings)

14 oz. basmati rice

14 oz. of boneless chicken

3 ½ oz. carrot

1 ½ oz. of green beans

1 ½ oz. of leeks

3 ½ oz. onions

2 curry leaf sprigs

1 teaspoon garlic paste

¼ teaspoon of ginger paste

¾ teaspoon of turmeric powder

6 cinnamon sticks

½ teaspoon cardamom, crushed

Salt, to taste

Oil for cooking, as needed

Preparation

Wash the basmati rice thoroughly. When cooking the rice, season it with a little oil and salt. The cooked rice should be soft but not mushy or sticky. After cooking, spread it evenly on a flat container.

Chop the boneless chicken into substantial pieces and rinse them thoroughly. Prepare salt, cinnamon, cardamom, and ½ teaspoon of turmeric powder. Place the chicken chunks, cardamom, cinnamon, turmeric powder, and salt in a cooking pot and put it on the stove. Turn on the flame after fully combining them. Cook the chicken thoroughly, covered, over a high flame. Open the cover halfway through and give it a nice swirl. This takes about 12 minutes. Shred the chicken into small pieces once the heat has been reduced.

In heated oil, fry the curry leaves for 30 seconds over a high flame. Lay them over the rice. Fry onions over a high flame until golden, which takes about 5 minutes. Once finished, place them on top of the rice.

Cook the chicken pieces over medium heat until they begin to brown, around 5 minutes. Once finished, place them on top of the rice.

Heat cooking oil in a pot before adding green beans. Cook covered over a low flame for 3 minutes. Mix in the carrot and cook covered over a low flame for an additional 3 minutes. Add leeks, mix, and cook uncovered over medium heat for 3 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning. Add salt, ¼ teaspoon of turmeric powder, garlic paste, ginger paste, and other ingredients. Stir, mix, and cook uncovered over low heat for 1 minute.

Place the vegetable mixture on top of the rice. You now have boiling rice, fried onions, fried chicken, fried curry leaves, and the vegetable mixture. Stir everything together thoroughly. This is the best method for preparing chicken fried rice without using eggs, peas, or soy sauce. Serve and savor this flavorful, straightforward Sri Lankan-style chicken fried rice.
