Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked jasmine rice refrigerated overnight
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup minced white onions
- 2-3 tbsp minced garlic
- 2 strips raw chicken tenderloins
- 1 cup pineapple diced
- 1 cup peas and carrots
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil more if needed
- 1-2 tbsp chopped green onions garnish
Sauce
- 1 1/4 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp black or white pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt or to taste
Instructions
- Cut up ingredients - slice chicken tenderloins, mince garlic and onions, dice pineapple, and slice green onions. Remove cooked rice from refrigerator and fluff using a spoon or fork so that it is not clump up together.
- Combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl. In another small bowl, beat up the two eggs.
- Prep all ingredients and move them next to the stove. Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil to a large wok or skillet, and heat wok or skillet on medium.
- Add eggs to wok/skillet, once they are fairly cooked at the bottom (should still be runny on top), flip and cook the other side. Break eggs into smaller pieces and once eggs are no longer runny but still soft, remove from heat promptly.
- Add 1 tbsp (or more) of vegetable oil to wok/skillet and heat wok on high heat.
- Once oil is heated up, add minced garlic and onions. Stir for ~10 seconds or until fragrant (do not brown or burn), then immediately add slices of chicken.
- Once chicken is cooked, add rice and let it cook for a few minutes. Keep stirring.
- Next add sauce and stir to coat rice evenly with sauce. Cook for another minute or so.
- Then add mixed veggies and cooked eggs. Stir to combine. Then add pineapples. Stir to combine again. Taste and add salt if needed.
- Remove fried rice from heat. Garnish with green onions. Serve and enjoy!
