Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients

    Dice the chicken breast, carrots, and onion. Mince the garlic and slice the green onions. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook Rice

    Ensure that the rice is cooked and cooled. It is best to use day-old rice for better texture.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook Chicken

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the carrots and peas, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until tender.

  3. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty space and scramble until fully cooked. Then, add the cooked rice and the cooked chicken back into the skillet.

  4. 6

    Add Sauce

    Pour the soy sauce, salt, and black pepper over the mixture. Stir everything together until well combined. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes to heat through.

Finishing Touch

  1. 7

    Garnish

    Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve hot.
