Creating Protein-Packed Chicken Fried Rice is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Rice: If you haven’t done so, cook the jasmine rice and let it cool. Using day-old rice is best for texture.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
4. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and ginger. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
5. Add Vegetables: Toss in the mixed vegetables and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
6. Scramble Eggs: Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the other side and scramble them until fully cooked.
7. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet along with the cooked rice. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
8. Season the Rice: Drizzle the soy sauce and oyster sauce (if using) over the mixture. Stir to ensure everything is evenly coated.
9. Add Green Onions: Top with chopped green onions and stir to incorporate.
10. Finish with Sesame Oil: Drizzle sesame oil over the rice for added flavor before serving.
