1
Dice the leftover cooked chicken into small, bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
2
Chop the carrot into small cubes. Mince the garlic and ginger. Slice the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
3
In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
4
Heat 5 ml of vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble until just set. Remove from the pan and chop into smaller pieces. Set aside.
5
Add the remaining 10 ml of vegetable oil to the wok. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and white parts of the green onions. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
6
Add the diced carrots and frozen peas. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender-crisp.
7
Add the cold cooked rice to the wok. Break up any clumps with your spatula and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until the rice is heated through and slightly toasted.
8
Return the scrambled eggs and diced chicken to the wok. Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil. Stir well to combine all ingredients and ensure even coating.
9
Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, ensuring everything is well mixed and hot.
10
Garnish with the green parts of the sliced green onions before serving.
