Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of sesame oil. Add minced garlic and ginger, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then, add the diced carrots, bell pepper, and green peas. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Scramble the Eggs

    Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. In the empty side, crack the eggs and scramble them until fully cooked. Mix the eggs with the vegetables.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked rice and the chicken back into the skillet. Pour in the soy sauce and mix everything together, ensuring the rice is coated well. Stir-fry for another 5 minutes, allowing the rice to get slightly crispy.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Stir in the chopped green onions and give a final mix. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
