What is the best chicken I can use for fried rice?

Chicken fried rice can be made with either white meat like chicken breast or dark meat like thighs or leg.

Chicken breast is leaner and tender when not overcooked and it’s the perfect choice for people who love breasts. The other choice is thighs which are super juicy even if overcooked because of their fat content this gives you more cooking time to not dry out your dish.
