Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken breast and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
2
Add the diced onion, carrots, and peas to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 3-5 minutes.
3
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Crack in the eggs and scramble them until cooked through. Break the eggs up into small pieces and mix with the vegetables.
4
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a spatula. Stir-fry the rice with the vegetables and eggs for about 2-3 minutes, until everything is well combined.
5
Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet and stir-fry everything together for another minute. Season with soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.
