Chicken Fried Rice Caribbean Style.

I remember my mom's fried rice,  two words super delish. She made it often and whenever we had a get together the fried rice was the main attraction. I have to admit I crave this dish often, I have tweaked her recipe and made it my own. 
I had 5 chicken legs leftover from a Barbecue we had a day before so they came in handy.


Recipe 
Yields: 6 portions

2 slices of bacon ( you can use diced pancetta instead)
1 red pepper
1 onion
4 scallions
1 and half cup of diced chicken
1 cup of corn kernels

3 cups cooked white rice
Pepper, Salt , Ketjap Manis and Badia all seasoning to taste.



I sauteed the bacon after it got a little bit crispy I added the diced red pepper, onion and scallions and the corn kernels. After 4 minutes I added the chicken and then the rice. Stir a bit and then add dash of salt and pepper, the Badia seasoning and the Ketjap Manis (sweet ketjap) to taste. Serve this in a bowl with a fried egg and some cilantro on top and a side of plantains.
