Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs whisked
  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into thin strips
  • 1 tbsp oil to coat chicken I used expeller-pressed coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp Oil for frying I used expeller-pressed coconut oil
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups of cold cooked rice
  • 1 cup peas or any other vegetables of your choice I wanted peas. Green beans would be good or green onion, maybe carrots.
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • fresh ground pepper

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl whisk your eggs together with some salt and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet heat, a little oil over medium heat add whisked eggs.
  3. Let cook like an omelet but do not fold it. Flip and cook through. Remove from pan and let cool.
  4. Fold and slice into thin strips.
  5. In a medium bowl coat chicken with 2 tablespoons of oil and season with salt and pepper. In your skillet heat, a small amount of oil over medium heat add thinly sliced chicken breasts. Cook until no longer pink.
  6. Add diced onion and garlic. Cook another 2 – 3 minutes until softened.
  7. Add more oil if needed. Stir in cooked rice and in my case peas.
  8. Heat through.
  9. Remove from heat and stir in cooked egg.
  10. Top with soy sauce if you are so inclined.
