Ingredients
Directions
- Cook the rice.
- Chop the veggies
- Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Throw the chicken breasts on the pan, spread out as much as possible. At medium-high heat, expect to flip after 3 or 4 minutes. Your goal is to lightly brown the chicken. Start from the middle (hottest part) and work outward with your longest pair of Tongs flipping each piece. After another 2-4 minutes, both sides should be browned.
- Push the chicken to the edges of the pan. Crack the eggs and toss them in the middle, quickly scramble them.
- After the egg is scrambled (1-2 minutes), throw in all the veggies (garlic, peas, onions). Let cook for about 3 minutes. The veggies will cool down the heat a bit. Mix everything gently.
- Throw in the oyster sauce, the fish sauce, the sugar, and the butter. Do your best to spread these sauces around. Fold, don’t stir, the rice in, the gentler, the better. Rice will burn at medium-high heat unless you move it constantly. This should take between 1 and 5 minutes.
- The rice will turn brownish with the sauces. Once the rice is heated, colored, and mixed in with everything, we are ready to serve.
- Optionally serve with cucumber, lime, and cayenne pepper.
