No, it's not just you. I think someone must have made a mistake, because I just don't see all the fat in it. And the calories......

Seems like too much oil for 4 servings.

I use rice vinegar in place of some of the oil...that really cuts back on the fat and calories. I like to add garlic to just about everything I cook. That flavor is strong enough to cut back on fat.

High cal dish

The fat comes from the 1/2 cup of olive oil. You realize, just half a cup is 1000 calories. Then add 2 cups of white rice, that's about 1500 calories. Those two ingredients alone for a 4-serving dish put an individual serving at around 600 calories. Addin everything else and that's how you get the 900 caloric intake for one meal.

Half a cup of oil is a lot. I doubt I will follow the recipe as it is now. I'll probably use two tbsps of olive oil instead of half a cup.
