Method

  1. 1

    Thinly dice the green onion and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together the black pepper, oyster sauce, and water to create a quick sauce.

  3. 3

    Heat a non‑stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with oil.

  4. 4

    Add the ground chicken to the pan, breaking it up with a spatula, and cook until fully browned and no longer pink, about 5‑6 minutes.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The chicken is browned and no pink remains. Break it into small pieces as it cooks.

  5. 5

    Push the cooked chicken to one side of the pan, then crack the three eggs directly onto the chicken.

  6. 6

    Pour the prepared sauce mixture evenly over the chicken and eggs.

  7. 7

    Cover the skillet with a lid and let the eggs steam until the whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny, approximately 2‑3 minutes (adjust time for desired doneness).

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The whites are set while the yolks remain slightly runny. Keep the lid on as the eggs steam.

  8. 8

    While the eggs finish cooking, place the cooked rice in a serving bowl.

  9. 9

    Spoon the chicken and egg mixture over the rice, ensuring the sauce drips onto the rice.

  10. 10

    Garnish with the diced green onion and serve immediately.
