Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 cups Cooked white rice
• 1 pound Chicken breast, diced
• 1 large Carrot, diced
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup Frozen peas
• 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 large Eggs, beaten
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the gluten-free soy sauce with sesame oil. Set aside.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Add the diced chicken breast, and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the diced carrot and cook for 2 minutes.

Step 5

Add the red bell pepper and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Step 6

Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Step 7

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the beaten eggs to the empty side of the skillet. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then combine them with the vegetables.

Step 8

Add the cooked rice to the skillet and stir everything together, ensuring the rice is well combined with the vegetables and eggs.

Step 9

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet along with the frozen peas and sliced green onions.

Step 10

Pour the soy sauce and sesame oil mixture over everything, and toss until the rice mixture is evenly coated.

Step 11

Continue to cook and stir for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.

Step 12

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 13

Serve hot, garnished with extra sliced green onions if desired.
