Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the diced chicken breast and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic and chopped onion until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the diced red bell pepper, carrots, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are slightly tender.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, and add the frozen peas, mixing well with the other vegetables.
Push the ingredients to one side of the skillet to make room for the eggs. Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them until fully cooked, then mix them into the vegetables and chicken.
Add the cooled brown rice to the skillet, stirring until well combined with the meat and vegetables.
Drizzle the reduced-sodium soy sauce over the rice mixture and season with black pepper. Stir everything together thoroughly.
Sprinkle the chopped spring onions and cilantro over the fried rice before serving.
Serve hot with lime wedges on the side to squeeze over the fried rice for added freshness and flavor.
