If you have orzo in the house instead of rice, you can still whip up a batch of this easy tasty fried rice recipe. I started making my Fantastic Fried Rice the other day and realized I ran out of a major ingredient, so I made this one up and it was a hit. I served it with my Chinese Sweet and Sour Chicken.
