This Italian fried rice with Chicken is an easy dinner that is a fun twist on fried rice. It is a budget friendly meal too.I adore simple meals that don't require fussy plating to look nice. Visual appeal in meals is important for me, and this Italian Chicken Fried Rice looks yummy just scooped into a bowl. The chicken and recipe with Italian vegetables is easy as can be, and healthy too.
