Hi Jackyquah, hopefully someone with better Japanese will respond and also correct my Japanese but in the meantime a few points I can add are;
1. Fried chicken= からあげ。。。焼き鳥 is a little different being small pieces of chicken served on skewers usually cooked on charcoal burner.
私はご飯とか空揚げとか好きです the 好きです infers "likes to eat".
 
私はご飯とか空揚げとか好きです the 好きです infers "likes to eat".
not like that, I do know about that form, but I would like to highlight/mention the category first than the example.
'I saw animals like cat, dog,etc'
not 'I saw cat,dog,etc'
 
私はご飯か焼き鳥と同じ食物をたべる。
This means "I eat rice or same food as yakitori".

Maybe ~のような would work.
I eat food like rice, fried chicken
私はごはんや唐揚げのようなものを食べます。
This is the closest I can think of, though as a Japanese sentence it sounds a bit awkward to me...

Use や for such as. Don't try to translate literally.

私はご飯や唐揚げのような食べ物が好きです。

Oh wait it has been answered already. Nvm.
