Baked Fried Rice
Ingredients:
3 cups cold cooked rice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup diced carrot
1 cup frozen peas
2 cups cooked chicken, diced (or any protein of choice)
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 green onions, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
Stir in the carrot and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the peas and cook for another 2 minutes.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the diced chicken to the empty side and cook until heated through.
Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side of the skillet and scramble until cooked.
Add the cold rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps. Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), and sesame oil. Mix well.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until heated through.
Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
