3 cups cooked rice (1 cup uncooked)

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 teaspoon Asian chili-garlic sauce

Heat 1 TBSP oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add eggs and gently stir until softly scrambled. Remove from skillet, chop and set aside.

NOTE: I found this in Southern Living November 2009 magazine. It was in the "Ask the Test Kitchen" section about what to do with Thanksgiving leftovers. I chose to use shrimp with mine. I also put it in my weight watchers recipe builder. For 3/4 lbs. shrimp and four servings, it is 8 points per serving. A serving was about 1 1/4 cups. There is another fried rice recipe on my site, which was my Daddy's recipe and I grew up eating.
