Better Than Takeout Hawaiian Fried Rice
We made the mistake of actually ordering takeout last week. I was just too tired to make anything, but… it was a huge mistake. Every time I give in to ordering takeout, I wish I would have made my ‘better than takeout‘ recipes at home. I promise that this Hawaiian Fried Rice is better than any restaurant! It started with this sweet and sour chicken recipe on the blog. I didn’t believe it was possible to make something at home that was better than takeout. But it is. And that recipe is my favorite recipe on the site! It is possible to make better than takeout at home! And if you’re going to make homemade takeout chicken, then you MUST have rice to go with it! This Hawaiian fried rice is so delicious, and that secret ingredient (pineapple!) really takes it over the top and adds a deliciously refreshing taste.
Ingredients in Hawaiian Fried Rice
This combination of ingredients is SO delicious and really takes fried rice to a whole new level. I can’t get over the blends of flavors! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.
Ham: Sometimes, to save on time, I buy the ham at the store that is already cubed and ready to go! White Onion: Make sure that you are cutting up your vegetables to be similar in size so that they all cook at the same rate. Red Bell Pepper: Seed and chop this up to mix into the rice. Vegetable Oil: You can also use olive oil if you prefer. Eggs: I like to use large eggs whenever I am cooking in the kitchen. Rice: Cook your rice beforehand. Actually, day-old rice mixes in the best for this recipe! I like to use jasmine rice. Pineapple Tidbits: You can use fresh pineapple, or you can use a can of them to make things easier. Sesame Oil: This adds THE best flavor to the rice. Soy Sauce: You can use more or less depending on the flavor that you are trying to achieve. Green Onions: These are an optional garnish that I like to put on top, but I wouldn’t skip them! They add in a lot of color and flavor.
