Recipe For Pineapple Fried Rice

  Yesterday, I bought the sweetest pineapple ever. It was so delicious that I was tempted to bring out the portion I had saved to make this food. Thank God I resisted the temptation oh! Lol. This pineapple fried rice is the Nigerian modification of the Asian recipe. Thus, it is spicy and sweet. It’s also flavourful, incredibly delicious and so easy to make that you can rustle it up on a school day for your children’s lunch.

When making this food, I usually boil the rice and marinate the protein. I prefer shredded chicken; so, I seasoned it with curry, thyme, paprika, pepper, salt, two tablespoons of cornflour the night before. I also prepare the veggies at night too. So, what I do in the morning is to scramble the eggs, stir fry the rice, my protein of choice and veggies in my non-stick pan and voilà! The delicious pineapple fried rice is ready.
