Teriyaki chicken, egg fried rice with vegetables

Step 1

Start by cutting the chicken breasts into cubes/chunks that are no bigger than 1 inch/2 cm. Put this into a bowl and add all the other ingredients. The 2 cloves of grated garlic, 2 tsp grated ginger, 4 tbsp teriyaky sauce, 1 tbsp sweet soy sauce, 1 tbsp Worchester sauce, 2 tbsp lemon juice or 1 of tamarind and the 1/3 tsp black pepper. Mix well and set aside.

Step 2

Rinse the rice thoroughly by running plenty of water through it. Allow it to rest for a few minutes while you prepare the veggies.

Step 3

I always cook simultaneously so preparation is crucial especially with a dish like this. While the chicken marinades, and the rice rests, I am preparing the veggies. Wash, peel and chop, cut, shave whatever they need doing. Place all on a big plate or chopping board.

Step 4

Place a medium-sized pan on fire, add the rice and the water. Cook (covered with a lid) on medium fire until the rice starts to boil then turn the fire on low and cook for approximately 10 min. When it's ready, turn the heat off and set aside.

Step 5

While the rice is cooking, place one or two pans on medium fire. Just deal with one if parallel cooking isn't your thing.

Step 6

Place a deep pan on medium fire, add the 1 tbsp coconut oil, the chopped red onions cook for 2 minutes tossing them from time to time. Add the ginger and the garlic, followed by the carrots cook for one minute, stirring a couple of times. Bring in the chopped greens and the broccoli florets. Cook on high fire for 5-6 minutes tossing every 30 seconds. Season with a pinch of salt and some black pepper. When ready, cover and set aside for a little later when serving.

Step 7

Simultaneously, place another pan on med fire, add 1 tbsp coconut oil, add the marinated chicken breast and cook for 7-8 minutes stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat when ready.

Step 8

Cook the egg fried rice by placing a pan on medium/high fire, add 1 tbsp coconut oil and when hot add the eggs. Scumble the eggs and when cooked, add the rice and the peas. Mix or toss around to make sure it gets nice and hot. Take out on the serving plates directly. Add the meat and the vegetables to the serving plates, sprinkle some sesame seeds and serve. Enjoy!
