Description
In translation, nasi goreng simply means 'fried rice.' This excellent Indonesian dish is now popular around the world, thanks to its relatively easy preparation and accessible ingredients. Except, perhaps, for kecap manis — this is an Indonesian sweet soy sauce; but you can find it in grocery stores now as well — globalization! Nasi goreng can be considered a type of pilaf: cooked rice is stir-fried with vegetables and meat or poultry. This is a chicken version.

Pour in 3 tablespoons of soy sauce and cook, stirring, until the rice is heated through and the soy sauce colors it a uniform brown.

Add the chicken, stir, and remove from heat.
