Spicy Pineapple Fried Rice
Recipe by nlb

2 T vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 t fresh gigner, finely chopped
1/8 to 1/4 t crushed red pepper flakes
3 c. cooked rice, cold
1/4 c soy sauce
8 oz. can crushed pineapple in syrup,
drained
1/4 c green onions, thinly sliced (white
and green)

In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over
med.-low heat until hot. Add garlic, ginger
and red pepper; cook and stir 2 minutes.
Increase heat to med-high. Add rice and soy
sauce; cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add pineapple, tossing to combine; heat
through. Sprinkle with green onions before
serving.

My notes: I used 8 oz. of chunked
pineapple, not crushed, and I left in about
half of the juice in the can when I added
it. I also added 1 t. sesame oil to the soy
sauce because whenever I cook with sesame
oil my kids come sniffing into the kitchen
to see what's up. Thanks nlb!
