Ingredients

• 4 cups cooked jasmine rice
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup chicken breast, diced
• 1 cup frozen peas and carrots mix
• 2 stalks green onions, finely sliced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Prepare all ingredients before starting: dice the chicken, mince the garlic and ginger, slice the green onions, and measure out the sauces and seasonings.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the diced chicken to the pan. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil along with the minced garlic, minced ginger, and optional chili flakes. Sauté for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.

Step 5

Push the aromatics to one side of the pan and crack the eggs into the empty space. Scramble the eggs quickly with a spatula until just set, then mix them in with the aromatics.

Step 6

Add the frozen peas and carrots mix to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Step 7

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, mixing with the vegetables and scrambled eggs.

Step 8

Stir in the cooked jasmine rice, breaking up any clumps with your spatula.

Step 9

Drizzle the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil over the rice mixture. Stir well until all the rice is evenly coated and the sauce is distributed.

Step 10

Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, to allow the flavors to meld and heat the dish through.

Step 11

Turn off the heat and sprinkle the sliced green onions over the top. Toss gently to combine.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy Carolyn's Stir Fry Rice, optionally garnished with additional green onions or a dash of chili flakes for extra heat.
