Be sure to cook the rice ahead of time so that it has time to chill. Better yet, cook extra the next time a recipe calls for rice so you'll have some on hand. Ingredients:
1 large egg |
1 large egg white |
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil, divided |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger |
1 small red bell pepper, cut into short, thin strips |
1 cup (4 ounces) diced cooked chicken breast |
1 cup frozen petite green peas |
3 cups cold cooked rice |
1/3 cup low-sodium teriyaki sauce |
1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions |
Directions:
1. Combine egg and egg white, beating well. 2. Heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add egg and egg white to skillet. As egg begins to cook, gently lift edges with a spatula, and tilt pan to allow uncooked portion to flow underneath. When set (about 30 seconds), turn egg over; remove from pan. Break into coarse pieces with spatula; set aside and keep warm. 3. Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil, garlic, and ginger to pan; stir-fry 1 minute. Add bell pepper; stir-fry 2 minutes. Add chicken and peas; stir-fry 1 minute. Add rice and teriyaki sauce; stir-fry 1 minute or until rice is thoroughly heated. Add cooked egg and green onions, stirring to combine. Serve immediately. |
