  2. To make the peanut sauce stir together the peanut butter, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, garlic and red pepper flakes until the mixture is well combined. Thin the sauce with 2 to 4 tablespoons of warm water until you have the desired consistency then set aside.
     
  3. To make the fried rice, add a tablespoon of oil to a large nonstick skillet over a medium high heat. Add the marinated chicken and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Move the chicken around in the pan until most of the chicken is no longer pink.
     
  4. Add the diced vegetables and sauté for two minutes or until the veggies are tender but crisp.
     
  5. Add the rice, and remaining tbsp of oil to the pan with about 1/3 of the peanut sauce we made earlier. Sauté for another 2 minutes stirring continuously to make sure all of the ingredients and sauce are well distributed. And then it is ready to serve.
