Method

  1. 1

    1. Heat a large wok or skillet over medium‑high heat and add a splash of oil.

  2. 2

    2. Add the chicken breast, seasoned with smoked paprika, and stir‑fry until the pieces are golden brown and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The chicken is golden and cooked through. Keep the pieces moving in the hot pan for even cooking.

  3. 3

    3. Push the chicken to one side of the pan and crack the eggs into the empty space; scramble them until just set.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The eggs are just set. Scramble them in the open space before mixing through the chicken.

  4. 4

    4. Stir the scrambled eggs into the chicken, then add the cooked jasmine rice, breaking up any clumps.

  5. 5

    5. Toss the rice and chicken mixture, allowing the rice to heat for 2–3 minutes and develop a slight crisp.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The rice is hot and has developed a slight crisp. Break up clumps as you toss the rice.

  6. 6

    6. Add the frozen peas, corn, and carrots; continue to stir‑fry until the vegetables are heated through, about 3–4 minutes.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The vegetables are heated through. Keep stirring so they warm evenly with the rice.

  7. 7

    7. Drizzle the soy sauce and oyster sauce over the rice, mixing thoroughly to coat all ingredients evenly.

  8. 8

    8. Cook for another 1–2 minutes to let the flavors meld, then remove from heat.

  9. 9

    9. Sprinkle chopped spring onions over the fried rice and give a final gentle toss.

  10. 10

    10. Serve hot, optionally with extra soy sauce on the side.
