preparation
Combine the
Chicken breast
together with
Peanut oil
,
Garlic
and
Dried bird's eye chillis
in a plastic bag
Cook the
Rice
with little to no salt, per instructions
Put both in the fridge. Come back in a few hours
cooking
Put a little bit of
Peanut oil
into a pan and heat on high until shimmering
Add the
Yellow onion
stir around to get them nicely covered in oil, cook until slightly translucent (2 mins max)
Add the
Chicken breast
Don't put your face near the pan unless you want chili smoke in your eyes. Open a window
Cook the
Chicken breast
Develop some browning on the outside in the high heat. Once no uncooked flesh is visible give it another 30 second and then gather everything already in the pan to one side
Reduce the heat slightly, and add
Butter
to the pan. Allow it to melt somewhat, then add the
Rice
over the top. Allow
Rice
to fry for 30-60 seconds, stopping before the butter burns, and then mix the remaining
Butter
into the
Rice
Pour
Light soy sauce
and
Fish sauce
over everything to taste. About 2-3tbps of sauce. Use more
Light soy sauce
than
Fish sauce
perhaps a 4:1 ratio.
Rearrange pan again to make more space. Crack
Eggs
into this space. Scramble them lightly until about half cooked. The goal is to get a nice mixture of both raw egg and cooked egg.
Mix everything together, coating rice in the uncooked
Eggs
Cook for 1-2 additional minutes until the
Eggs
mostly cooked and everything looks delicious.
Tips
Keep in the fridge for up to a week, reheats nicely with 2 mins in the microwave
