I love how you are always learning and sharing with us. One thing I would like you to try is to add 1 tsp of baking soda to the chicken, along with the cornstarch. Let sit for about 30 minutes. (NOT overnight!) No, you won't taste the baking soda but boy, does it enhance the tenderness of the chicken. (works with beef and pork too.) Now I want fried rice! Great video!
Absolutely....i did a ton of research...seemed like the soda thing worked....it seemed like by not doing it but adding moisture like I did worked as well....I thought about doing a comparison...but I will let others do that...
Fantastic video, guys. This looks absolutely delicious. I always use thighs and don't have to worry about dried up flavorless chicken. Have a great week, my friends.
I've made this twice in the last two weeks and it came out awesome. I eliminated the oyster sauce since my wife doesn't care for it. I also added water chestnuts. So good with great flavor.
We used chicken thighs, no worries of drying out, but we also prefer thighs over breast meat anyway. Your dish looked great! We only made fried rice once so far, it turned out great but always room for improvement. Got a Blackstone for Christmas and learning new dishes. Love your recipes and videos!
Looks delicious! Thanks for all the little extra tips and tricks that you always share when you make your videos. Those little extra nuggets of wisdom are wonderful and always very much appreciated!
I've been watching your videos for a few weeks now, and may I say you and your wife are providing an excellent amount of help for a first timer as myself. Made smashburgers last Friday, came out OK but then again on Sunday and I dared a double - turned out awesome. Today I attempted this chicken fried rice - again, it was so great my wife and I killed the entire huge bowl. I feel I was able to get it right so quickly due to your videos that detail what NOT to do! Thank you!
Followed this video tonight for my first time ever making fried rice... It was a hit! Turned out awesome. With a couple tweaks and some more practice I'll get it dialed in a little more even, but for my first time I was amazed at how good it was! Thanks for the video!
Followed each and every step...Amazing! Will definitely be keeping this recipe as a staple in our griddle box of recipes! Awesome flavors and the chicken very tender. Great tips too!!! Thank you Flat Top King!!!
This recipe turns out amazing! This is my 3rd time making it. The 1st time I made a single recipe for my family and we loved it. The 2nd time we had some friends over. I made 2 batches, a single recipe and then a double. This weekend we had more family and friends over. I made 6x the recipe in 3 double batches. Everyone loved it and I actually have some leftovers this time. This is about my 10th time using the flat top and I am a little slow on my first batch, but gain my confidence and speed up after that. ***FYI to other beginners, make sure your grill temp is around 400°F so you don't burn the food and I used chicken thighs so I have more time to cook as I am a little slow. Everyone is giving me credit for having such a great recipe, I'm directing them to @TheFlatTopKing. Thank you so much for this and your other recipes.
Thank you for post the link in the description.. made this tonight (Sunday) for our luxury meal of the week. The wife approved and had 2 servings. :) my first time so I do have to improve on a few things.. but.. I will definitely practice some more. Peace… ❤
I always salt brine my chicken breasts, but that chicken fried rice is amazing.I could eat that crunchy garlic chili oil right out of the jar it’s so good. Thank you
Maybe try the broth soon, around 50F this weekend and I just picked up 20 lbs. of Basmati rice at Sam's. Always looking to tweak things to get better. Hot tip from the last video was not messing with the rice until it warms up.
Tried that out in Germany yesterday! Amazing recipe and always love to watch your videos. Learning so much how to use the griddle on a daily basis. Keep on going!
So velveting the chicken helps not to dry it out? I must be missing the point of velveting? Would this be a good method for hibachi style chicken that wouldn't be mixed with rice? Thank you for sharing all your knowledge i really enjoy your channel. Your wife really seems supportive, it's great you get the family evolved!!
Thankyou for this video. It appears that you have made some serious advancements in this dish. We have loved the CFR 1.0. I look forward to trying CFR 2.0.
Congrats on being back to short sleeve weather! Really nice approach here. I make fried rice quite often and I never thought to add some oyster sauce and finish with sesame oil. Usually we go with Tofu as our protein, but dang it I'm going to try chicken next time. By the way your velveting technique seems to be on par with most of the Asian chefs I've watched. Thanks for sharing!
Damn it, man! I so love watching all of you and Amy's videos. You always up my game, and I appreciate what you post as it's purely genuine. I just moved but will be making this very soon.
Master class... well done! If you were gonna introduce MSG to this recipe, where would you do it? Would you shake it on the rice or would you dissolve it in the soy sauce? What would be the best practice for that?
Great 👍👍 like always!! I can't wait for the good weather and start to use plancha, this recipe will be on the top of my list! Neal, how can I buy your Apron? I really like it! Is that available in your website?
Awesome cook as usual! Quick question. What brand is the teardrop flatwear you're using at the end of the vid? Love y'alls vids and instruction. Keep it up brother!!!
A good fried rice is just a good fried rice. I experience the same issue here in Houston TX my fried rice is better than what i can get from a restaurant. Thanks for the video and GRIDDLE ON DUDE.
Fantastic actually looked perfect must have been tasty with that extra garlic and that chilly and garlic sauce . quick question why do all the people use so much rice ?
I must have channeled you. I made my rice for chicken fried rice last night. I always do my chicken separately because I can’t stand overcooked dry chicken.
So good!!! Thank you. Have been watching your channel for a minute now. The fried rice came out perfect. Good tip on waiting till the end to cook chicken. Only suggestion is add some ginger to the garlic butter pool in the rice. Thanks again for crushing it !!!🫡
I made chicken fried rice from your other fried ricr video for about 26 people at the Quigley buffalo shoot in forsyth montana a few years ago and it was Great Everyone loved it but only one person complained there wasnt enough chicken in it. Go figure ! All i told him was tough. ( Keeping it clean ) THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA......
I got to ask you said "add this" for the red looking spice but never told us what it was! I am super interested what is the secret "this" red spice! Lol
I contacted Blackstone about my warped griddle top and sent them pics they asked for,they said it looked to be in tolerence but give it 15 or 20 cooks and it should level out,WTF. Richard Webb
Great job Neal. My wife watched this with me and she wants me to make it. I am going to make this with chicken and on another day with port tenderloin. mmmmmm. 😋
I love watching this, but your egg consumption is waaayyyyyy toooooo low. I scramble 4 eggs and add 3 unscrambled eggs. Maybe it’s just me but I love the egg in my rice and my family does as well
It looks good and may even be good, but I see a lot of incorrect steps (or added at the wrong time). The first mistake I see is saying fried rice and doing it grilled (and is not the worst mistake)

Hey thanks for watching
Great job, Chef. Thanks for the words and your instruction. God Bless you and your family. 💖 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hey I appreciate that...cheers
Great tips...i always overcook my chicken. I really need to practice it more.
Super flavorful, and looks fantastic! Love the broth in the rice cooker tip👍😊
II think it really helped with flavor...i liked for sure..so much better than plain...and way better than local
Awesome stuff Neal! Definitely looks delicious, nailed it bro! Cheers 🍻

Great question....maybe in the chicken mix and just sprinkled like salt and pepper
@@TheFlatTopKing I think that would be perfect in the rice cooker.. why didn't I think of that? I guess that's why I am here :).
This looks delicious. I’m going to try it! Thanks for sharing
Please do! We have tried hard to create a way better version without compromising ideas...
Looks really good, I must try this way.
Please do! This has taken some time to get better...hopefully you can see the results
I can't wait to try this out. Thanks for all the tips. 👍
Absolutely
You guys must be psychic ! I was just thinking I want to make chicken fried rice this week and here we are 😊
Great minds think alike...ahahhaha
Great advice on holding back on the chicken during the cook.
TY
That looks really good..... I have an awesome recipe for chicken fried rice
Mind sharing it...
Great 👍👍 like always!!

Looks Amazing! Thanks again!
No problem!
Awesome cook as usual! Quick question. What brand is the teardrop flatwear you're using at the end of the vid? Love y'alls vids and instruction. Keep it up brother!!!
hhaahh Honestly its the 3rd time we have had to buy new forks...they keep disappearing....so I just went on Amazon and bought 16 only forks...
Looks so good 👍

Looks awesome. I add sesame seeds to mine
Looks great! Maybe a week night dinner this week!
Hope you enjoy
Looks incredible!!

Great job, what was the table spoon of red paste
Fantastic actually looked perfect must have been tasty with that extra garlic and that chilly and garlic sauce . quick question why do all the people use so much rice ?
I think it has to do from the original culture...leftover rice it traditional...so just adding some extra ingredients it extends the dish..
You forgot the ginger, shallots and MSG! But still looks very good!!! 😊
Found your channel today!!! Looking forward to the recipes. P.s. as a Navy veteran love the Navy flag behind you
First...thanks for your service....and appreciate your support
I must have channeled you. I made my rice for chicken fried rice last night. I always do my chicken separately because I can’t stand overcooked dry chicken.

looks 👌🏻
A new question, what is the best way to cook whole oysters on flat top. Can you lay aluminum foil on the flat top?
Thanks
Bill
I would not...what about those oyster pans....each one has a whole....add some butter and garlic in the wholes...

I was at that shoot. It was a great time!
@@c-cothr9750 it's a great time we go every year I'm only one hour away from there. We also go for a week . Thank you for your response
Is there a way to access your ingredients and recipe in written form?

I like a little bit of spice in my fried rice, so right at the end I'll add a small amount of Chinese mustard.
would you use chicken thighs instead of breast?????
I would! I like thighs as they are very forgiving.
Yes you can...it has more allowance for drying out...
I got to ask you said "add this" for the red looking spice but never told us what it was! I am super interested what is the secret "this" red spice! Lol
Crispy Garlic Chili Oil
Looks great and I’ll be using some of these tips this week. But uh… no MSG hiyyyaahhhhh 😂
ahhaahha I need to get some...I have it in my spice line..just dont have it personally...i need to quite being lazy
@@TheFlatTopKing the Accent product in the grocery store spice aisle is MSG, for anyone who may not know.
@@Patrick94GSR TY
Is all of the cooking done in real time or there pauses and edits ?
Definitely editing for time....
I think the fried rice comes out the best when the klanking of the spatula is LOUD. Makes it seem like to everyone you know how to cook .lol...
hahahahaha State Law
So true
Can I order “shake that “ seasoning from your web site?
Absolutely
Does anyone recognize the make and model of this gridle?
Traeger...
A table spoon of this?? What is it?
MSG???
MSG?
Absolutely add it...its my seasonings I sell...just not something I have readly available in my panty
@@TheFlatTopKing thank you, I will be making this and comparing it to your older video because I made that last week! much love to you and the fam
Everything was perfect except that you should have chopped the rice up more. Fried rice is not supposed to have clumps
Uncle Roger not gonna be happy...
😂😂😂
😅😅
Roger can suck a d
Roger was racist trash anyway
I contacted Blackstone about my warped griddle top and sent them pics they asked for,they said it looked to be in tolerence but give it 15 or 20 cooks and it should level out,WTF. Richard Webb
That would be something i would not be happy with...thats just me..where did you buy
Lowes,so I can return at any time,lol,but I will cook on it a couple more times@@TheFlatTopKing
PS:I told them they were full of shit also,that I was born at night,but not last night
Great job Neal. My wife watched this with me and she wants me to make it. I am going to make this with chicken and on another day with port tenderloin. mmmmmm. 😋
That is awesome!
The secret to fried rice is sesame oil
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎🏴
Thanks bud
Tablespoon of this? Must be a mystery ingredient
This is almost completely backwards of how I cook it. Probably explains the results
hahahah No..i wouldnt say that...im sure yours is good...just different technique...
I love watching this, but your egg consumption is waaayyyyyy toooooo low. I scramble 4 eggs and add 3 unscrambled eggs. Maybe it’s just me but I love the egg in my rice and my family does as well
You do you…we try and give a good baseline for people.
It looks good and may even be good, but I see a lot of incorrect steps (or added at the wrong time). The first mistake I see is saying fried rice and doing it grilled (and is not the worst mistake)
It’s not grilled because he’s not using a grill. It’s a griddle. Things get fried on a griddle.
