There's chicken, there's rice... and it's fried. So I think this qualifies as a 'Fried Rice Recipe'. True it probably doesn't conform to Chinese fried rice recipe style guidelines, and you won't find this fried rice at the Chinese restaurant takeout but it is good, and you may eat it all in one sitting.
