Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Begin by gathering all the ingredients. Make sure the cooked rice is cooled and ideally a day old for the best texture.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken breast and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Scramble the Eggs

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them until fully cooked. Remove and set aside with the chicken.

  4. 4

    Sauté Vegetables

    Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add the green peas and chopped green onions, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Combine All Ingredients

    Add the cooked rice to the skillet, followed by the cooked chicken and scrambled eggs. Pour in the soy sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine all ingredients and heat through, about 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once everything is heated through and well mixed, remove from heat and serve hot.
