Combo Fried Rice

This is fried rice with a twist....

In a large skillet place 2 T olive oil and then salt and pepper two chicken cutlets and fry until done.  Set aside and then cut into bite size pieces.  Meanwhile boil a bag of instant brown rice and drain.

While the rice is cooking, chop celery, onion and carrots and add S&P. In the same skillet (after the chicken is removed), add the vegetable mixture and the juice of an orange.   Stir fry until tender, and add in soy sauce.

Toss in the rice and stir fry, add in the chopped chicken.  Stir fry and taste, adding in soy sauce as needed.  At the end, stir in about two cups of baby spinach until it wilts.

Top with chopped cashews.  Serve up and enjoy!

As my husband said when he ate, this meal was like cashew and orange chicken mixed with a little stir-fry - and it worked!  The spinach was just an added touch of green for the holidays...:)
