Step 1

Heat 1 Tbsp of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted. Add carrots, onion, peas, garlic and ginger, and season with a generous pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Saute for about 3 - 4 minutes or until the carrots and onion are soft.

Step 2

Move the vegetables to one side of the skillet (or set them aside on a plate if your skillet is small), and add an additional 1 Tbsp butter to the other side of the skillet and stir until melted. Add eggs to the empty side of the skillet and cook until scrambled, stirring occasionally. You don't want to mix the eggs with the vegetables yet, you want them to be fluffy. When eggs are scrambled, you can mix them with the vegetables in the skillet.

Step 3

Add the last 1 Tbsp of butter to the skillet and stir until melted. Immediately add the chilled rice, cooked chicken, fish sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, and chilis (if using), and stir until combined. Continue stirring for an additional 3 minutes to fry the rice.

Step 4

Remove from heat. Add the sliced green onions and stir until combined. Serve warm.
