Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cups cold cooked rice
- 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
- 3 scallions, chopped, dark green parts reserved for sprinkling
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 grilled chicken breast, cut into bite-sized cubes
Instructions
- Add the canola oil and 1 tablespoon sesame oil to a large nonstick saute pan. Whisk the eggs in a small bowl and season with the salt and some pepper; set aside. Add the ginger, carrot and garlic to the pan and cook until the vegetables have softened slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the rice, peas and the white and light green parts of the scallion. Then, add the soy sauce and remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil and toss to coat. Press the rice mixture gently into the pan and fry until it begins to crisp on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the eggs to the pan and cook, stirring gently, until just set, about 1 minute. Stir in the chicken and cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with the reserved scallions.

Loved this recipe. It was just as easy as advertised! And the flavors are all there.
This dish is excellent and it’s easy to make. I will be making it again. Thanks Valerie!
Delicious, definitely will repeat
Not an easy step by step approach.
my familly loves it its delicious
Simple and delicious. I used brown rice vs white to keep it healthier. Would make again.
I made this tonight with leftover pork tenderloin. I did not have any ginger on hand. It was delicious.
Used rotisserie chicken-This was so easy and so good! I added snap peas because I had.. can pretty much add what you like- great base recipe-will be making often!
Really delicious and a new recipe to add into the dinner rotation. The carrots need a little bit of extra cooking otherwise they’re too crunchy in the finished dish.
This is SO good! I have to double the recipe now as my husband and I race for the last spoonful.
