Delicious Trader Joe’s Fried Rice Air Fryer – (So nutritious!)

★★★★★ 5 from 1 reviews

Fried rice, for example, is produced using cooked rice, maize, carrots, green peas, leeks, and a variety of other nutritious vegetables that are cooked and frozen to keep them fresh for a long time.

One of the greatest frozen fried rice brands on the market is Trader Joe’s. A supper for one person can be made with just one frozen fried rice packet, which costs around $3 to $4. There are also a variety of possibilities, such as chicken fried rice, vegetables fried rice, shrimp fried rice, and I’m sure there are others.

Can You Cook Frozen Rice In The Air Fryer

Yes, using an air fryer to cook frozen fried rice is a fast and efficient method. Your fried rice will be ready to consume in about 15 minutes.

Cooking in a frying pan will burn your rice, and you’ll need to stay focused when flipping the fried rice. Also, if you plan on using the oven, it will take a long time to preheat the oven, especially if you have a large one, and the rice may take anywhere from 20 to 25 minutes to cook.

The air fryer heats the air inside of her, then circulates it to cook every inch of your rice, so you won’t have to flip it every time. The air also heats quickly, so you’ll only need 1 or 2 minutes to preheat the air fryer, and you won’t always need to. The air fryer is always the winner.

Where I can Buy Trader Joe’s Fried Rice

Trader Joe’s Fried Rice is not available to order online. I did a lot of research online and discovered that Trader Joe’s Fried Rice is not available on Amazon or Walmart at this time. So the only choice is to order from Trader Joe’s Stores, which are located practically everywhere in the United States (for a list of Trader Joe’s locations, go here).

Ingredients You Need

You’ll just need one package of Trader Joe’s frozen Fried Rice with chicken or cauliflower, some oil to brush on the rice (optional), and an air fryer for this quick dinner.

• 1 package Trader Joe’s Chicken Fried Rice (frozen)
• Spraying oil (optional)
• Fryer (Air)

How To Make Trader Joe’s Fried Rice In The Air fryer 

• Preheat the air fryer for 2 minutes at 350°F.
• In the air fryer basket, place the frozen Trader Joe’s Fried Rice. If your basket has holes at the bottom, you can line it with aluminum foil or a small container that can fit through the holes.
• Cook the frozen fried rice for 8 minutes on low heat, then flip the rice with a shake of the basket. Cook for another 3 minutes.
• Place the fried rice in a serving dish and serve immediately with a side dish of your choice.

How To Store 

If you have any leftover fried rice, the only option is to keep them in the fridge. Simply place the fried rice in a glass container and cover firmly, or in a dish and wrap in anaplastic wrapper before placing in the refrigerator. Fried rice can be kept in the fridge for up to 5 days if properly refrigerated.

My suggestion is to prepare Trader Joe’s Fried Rice in small amounts in the Air Fryer and then freeze the package. Check the expiration date on the back of the container to see how long the frozen Trader Joe’s Fried Rice can last in the freezer.

What To Serve With Air Fryer Trader Joe’s Fried Rice

After you’ve finished cooking Trader Joe’s Fried Rice in the air fryer, you’ll undoubtedly wonder what to serve it with.

Serve it plain with fried or scrambled eggs.

Here is a list of dish ideas to serve with Trader Joe’s Fried Rice:

• Fried Egg

CAN I USE FRESH ONION AND GARLIC?

You can certainly mince your own garlic cloves and cut a fresh onion. Because I prefer to make things as simple as possible, I substitute dry minced onion and garlic powder in this recipe. In my perspective, no flavor is lost!

One medium-sized yellow onion can be used if using fresh onion. You’ll need 4 garlic cloves for this dish. If you’re using a substitute for the onion, sauté it first before adding the vegetables.
