Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into thin strips
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 4 cups cold, cooked rice
  • 6 green (spring) onions, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish, optional
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Directions

Beat eggs with a whisk in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Heat very little oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat and make an omelette using half the beaten eggs. Turn out onto a plate to cool (do not fold omelette). Repeat process with remaining beaten eggs. Place 1 omelette on top of the other, fold and coarsely chop. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, toss chicken strips with the sesame oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil over high heat in large frying pan or wok and stir-fry the prepared chicken strips until lightly golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the onion and garlic and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes or until onion has softened. Add 2 tablespoons more vegetable oil and when hot, stir in the cooked rice and green onions, tossing and mixing thoroughly until very hot. Sprinkle with soy sauce and mix evenly. Remove from heat and stir in chopped cooked egg. If desired, garnish with additional sliced green onions.

    I had been craving Chinese Food and had some leftover Rice from the night before....so I found this recipe and tried it. I did change out the chicken breast for some already pre-cooked chicken breast (the kind you get in the frozen food section I had some on hand and used it instead. I simply added it to the pan where the recipe called for the chicken and carried on with the rest. It came out great, and makes a quick dinner or Sunday lunch for the whole family.

    Good fried rice. So easy! I just scrambled the eggs right in the wok. Not sure why the recipe recomends using a separate skillet. Just more dishes to wash!
