Servings: persons

1 cup frozen green peas
12 ounces cooked pork from Orange Sesame Pork or other lean, low-sodium cooked meat, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 2 cups)
2 tablespoons soy sauce (lowest sodium available)
1 tablespoon vinegar (plain rice vinegar preferred)
1 tablespoon canola or corn oil
2 medium carrots, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 medium onion, sliced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 cups cooked brown rice (cold preferred)
1/4 cup fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth or water (if using cold rice)

1
Put the peas in a colander to begin thawing.
2
In a medium bowl, stir together the pork, soy sauce, and vinegar.
3
In a nonstick wok or large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over high heat for about 1 minute, or until very hot, swirling to coat the bottom.
4
Cook the carrots, onion, and red pepper flakes for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften, stirring constantly.
5
Stir in the peas and rice.
6
If using cold rice, add the broth.
7
(Hot, moist rice wont need liquid.)
8
Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally to break up the rice.
9
Stir in the pork mixture.
10
Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until all the ingredients are heated through, stirring occasionally.
11
Fried rice is best when made with cold rice because the rice grains stay firm and separate.
