Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 cups rice, cooked
  • 1 Tbsp oil
  • 1 cup rotisserie chicken
  • 1 cup frozen edamame shelled
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup frozen carrots
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten
  • 3 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp sesame oil

Instructions
 

  • Cook rice according to package. Using a rice cooker allows you to cook rice without under or over cooking it.
  • Heat oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat. Add edamame, peas, and carrots. Cook for 3–4 minutes until warmed through. Stir in the shredded chicken.
  • Push the veggies and chicken to one side of the pan. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty space and scramble until fully cooked.
  • Add the cooked rice, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and sesame oil. Stir well, letting the rice crisp up slightly. Cook for another 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
