How to Make Chicken Fried Rice on a Blackstone Griddle

  1. Preheat your Blackstone griddle or indoor griddle to low to medium heat. Drizzle a bit of avocado oil or preferred oil, over the surface. Indoor griddle will need about 5 extra minutes of cooking.
  2. Cut your chicken breasts into chunks and place them on one side of the griddle. I used kitchen scissors for the quickness. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt for taste. Cook for about 8–10 minutes, flipping the pieces several times to ensure even cooking and a golden skin.
    This was my first time cooking on the griddle and I learned how quickly food cooks on the Blackstone!! Which I believe this healthy meal, is a great beginner griddle recipe.

3. On the other side of the griddle, add the fresh broccoli florets and the pouch of cilantro lime rice. Drizzle with a heavy splash of water, then cover with a griddle dome to steam them for 5–7 minutes, until broccoli is tender and rice is heated through. Midway through, mix together so the rice spread out.
