Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet or wok over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Once hot, add the diced chicken breast and sauté until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Scramble the Eggs

    In the same skillet, add the beaten eggs. Scramble until fully cooked, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside with the chicken.

Cooking the Fried Rice

  1. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the remaining sesame oil to the skillet. Toss in the garlic, carrots, bell pepper, and green peas. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

  2. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked rice to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

  3. 5

    Add Chicken and Eggs

    Return the cooked chicken and scrambled eggs to the skillet. Mix everything together.

  4. 6

    Season the Rice

    Pour the soy sauce over the rice mixture. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly until the rice is evenly coated.

  5. 7

    Finish with Green Onions

    Stir in the chopped green onions and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing everything to heat through.
