Total Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
Rice
- 3 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 garlic cloves – chopped
- ¾ onion – chopped
- 300 gms – 10 oz. chicken breast – thinly sliced
- 4 green onion stalks – cut into 4 cm – 1.5" pieces
- 3 eggs – lightly beaten
- 6 cups cooked Jasmine rice – cold (preferably refrigerated overnight)
Sauce
- 4 tablespoon fish sauce
- 3 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoon granulated sugar
To Serve
- tomato wedges
- cucumber slices
- fresh coriander
Instructions
-
Heat the oil in a large wok over medium-high heat.
-
Add the garlic and stir-fry for 20 seconds.
-
Add the onion and stir-fry for 1 minute.
-
Add the chicken and green onions, and stir-fry for 1 minute or until the chicken turns white.
-
Push the chicken to one side of the wok, then pour the beaten eggs into the centre. Scramble quickly for about 30 seconds.
-
Add the rice and sauce ingredients. Stir-fry for 2 minutes to heat the rice and coat it evenly with the sauce.
-
Serve immediately. Garnish with fresh coriander, tomato wedges, and cucumber slices.
Recipe Notes
- Cut the chicken against the grain for tender pieces. To do this, check the direction of the fibres and slice across them at a right angle.
- You can use long-grain or medium-grain rice instead of Jasmine rice. Rice that has been refrigerated overnight works best, as the grains are firmer and less sticky, making it ideal for stir-frying.
- Two cups of uncooked rice will yield about 6 cups of cooked rice. Follow the instructions on the packet for the correct cooking time and method.
