👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the chicken: Season the bite-sized chicken pieces with a pinch of salt and pepper (if using). Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the wok and set aside.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Sauté aromatics and eggs: Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the hot wok. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it. Push the garlic to one side of the wok. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side and scramble them until just set. Break the scrambled eggs into smaller pieces with your spatula.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 3
Add rice and season: Add the cooked, chilled rice to the wok. Break up any clumps with your spatula. Stir-fry the rice with the garlic and eggs for 2-3 minutes, ensuring it's heated through and slightly toasted. Drizzle the soy sauce (and white pepper, if using) over the rice. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, tossing well to coat the rice evenly and allowing it to absorb the flavors.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Combine and serve: Return the cooked chicken to the wok. Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes to heat the chicken through and combine all ingredients. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh lime wedges, sliced cucumber, and cilantro sprigs if desired.

💡 專業提示
- ✓Using day-old, refrigerated rice is crucial for achieving the best fried rice texture. Freshly cooked rice is too moist and will result in a mushy dish.
- ✓Cook over high heat (medium-high to high) for the best results, mimicking a wok's intense heat. This helps to char ingredients slightly and develop smoky flavors.
- ✓Don't overcrowd the wok. If you are doubling the recipe, cook in batches to ensure everything fries properly.
- ✓Taste and adjust seasoning at the end. Soy sauce and fish sauce vary in saltiness.
