Skinless chicken breast

Peanut oil

Sesame oil

2 tsp

Chinese broccoli (gai lan)

1 bunch(es), steamed, to serve

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray a large non-stick frying pan with oil and heat over high heat. Cook chicken, turning occasionally, for 8–10 minutes or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Cool for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. Cover to keep warm.
  2. Meanwhile, heat a wok over high heat. Add half the sunflower/canola oil and heat for 30 seconds. Add egg and swirl to coat wok. Cook for 1–2 minutes or until just set. Transfer egg to a board. Roll and thinly slice.
  3. Reheat wok over medium-high heat. Add remaining sunflower/canola oil and heat for 30 seconds. Add garlic, ginger, bacon, prawns and half the shallots and stir-fry for 1–2 minutes or until prawns change colour and are just cooked through. Add peas, rice, soy and oyster sauces, sesame oil and chicken and stir-fry for 1–2 minutes or until rice is heated through. Top fried rice with sliced egg and remaining shallots. Serve.
  4. Serving Suggestion: steamed gai lan (Chinese broccoli).

Notes

TIP: Cook the rice a day ahead and spread over a large baking tray. Store, uncovered, in the fridge. This helps the rice to dry out so it doesn’t stick together when stir-frying.
