Chicken Fried Rice

Ingredients

• 800 g Chicken breast (thinly sliced)
• 4 tbsp Soy sauce (divided)
• 2 tbsp Cornstarch
• 1 tsp Baking soda
• 1 tbsp Dark soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp Vinegar (rice vinegar suggested in transcript)
• 1 tbsp Lao Gan Ma chili crisp
• 1 tsp Sesame oil
• 3 cup Cooked jasmine rice
• 2 cup Frozen veggies (mixed peas, carrots, corn)
• 2 tbsp Oil (divided)
• 4 Large eggs
• 6 Garlic (minced)
• 3 second spray Canola oil spray
• 1 stalk Green onion (sliced)

Steps

1. 1

   In a bowl, mix the thinly sliced chicken breast with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes to velvet the meat.

2. 2

   In a separate small bowl, prepare the stir-fry sauce by mixing the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of vinegar, 1 tablespoon of Lao Gan Ma chili crisp, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil.

3. 3

   Heat a large pan or wok over high heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the marinated chicken and cook until fully cooked and slightly browned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

4. 4

   In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and the 2 cups of frozen vegetables. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until tender.

5. 5

   Add the 6 cloves of minced garlic to the vegetables and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

6. 6

   Push the vegetables to the side of the pan and spray the empty space with a 3-second spray of canola oil. Add the 4 eggs and scramble them until just set.

7. 7

   Add the 3 cups of cooked jasmine rice, the cooked chicken, and the prepared sauce to the pan. Stir-fry everything together for 2 to 3 minutes, ensuring the rice is well-coated and heated through.

8. 8

   Add the sliced green onion, mix everything together one last time, and serve immediately.
