Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil, divided

  • 1 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

  • ½ (8 ounce) package mushrooms, chopped

  • 1 stalk celery, sliced

  • 3 large eggs, beaten

  • 3 cups cooked white rice

  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce (such as Bragg®)

  • 1 cup frozen peas, thawed

  • 3 stalks green onions, sliced, or more to taste

Directions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wide-bottom frying pan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken to a warm bowl.

  2. Add remaining oil to the pan and increase heat to medium-high. Add mushrooms and celery and cook until celery is slightly soft, about 5 minutes.

  3. Push veggies to the side of the pan and reduce heat to medium-low. Tilt the pan 45 degrees so veggies are away from the heat and add eggs to the open space in the skillet. Cook and stir until eggs are scrambled, about 3 minutes.

  4. Mix eggs and veggies together. Add rice; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add chicken and soy sauce; stir well. Add peas and green onions; cook and stir until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
