# Instructions:
01 -
Warm up the oil in a big wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the garlic and stir around for about 20 seconds.
02 -
Add in the onions and stir-fry them for a minute. Toss in the chicken and scallions next, cooking until the chicken isn’t pink anymore.
03 -
Push everything to one side of the pan, pour the eggs in the middle, and stir them quickly for around 30 seconds.
04 -
Stir in the rice and whichever sauce you chose. Cook it all together for 2 minutes so the rice heats up and gets coated with that sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
Using day-old, cold rice gives a better texture.
02 -
Swap chicken for shrimp, tofu, or crab if you'd like.
