Bacon, Egg and Cheese Fried Rice
Bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches and fried rice are each beloved for their simplicity and affordability, but also because they deliver great comfort and satisfaction. They typically offer a combination of salty meat, creamy eggs and a carb in the form of bread or rice, but each dish is infinitely adaptable. In this playful weeknight meal, the two come together. Rendered bacon fat is used to cook the dish’s components, infusing the vegetables and rice with smokiness. Eggs are beaten with nutty grated Parmesan to create rich, fluffy scrambled eggs that add an extra layer of savoriness to the dish. Any type of leftover rice will work, as would other leftover grains like farro or barley.
Ingredients
  • 4 ounces bacon, sliced into ¼-inch-thick strips
  • Neutral oil, if needed
  • 1 pound napa cabbage, chopped into 1-inch pieces (6 packed cups)
  • 1¼ cups chopped scallions
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
