Ingredients

• 1.5 cups cooked rice
• 3 eggs
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.5 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup carrot, diced
• 0.5 cup peas
• 1 cup chicken breast, diced
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 3 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute, ensuring it doesn't burn.

Step 4

Add the diced carrots and peas and cook until the carrots are tender, about 4-5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the diced chicken breast to the pan and cook until it is fully cooked and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the soy sauce and ketchup, cooking for another 2 minutes to combine well.

Step 7

Add the cooked rice to the pan and mix thoroughly, ensuring the rice is evenly coated with the sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Keep warm over low heat.

Step 8

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.

Step 9

Heat the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat.

Step 10

Pour the egg mixture into the pan, swirling to evenly coat the bottom.

Step 11

Cook the omelette until the bottom is set but the top is still slightly runny, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 12

Place half of the fried rice mixture onto one half of the omelette.

Step 13

Using a spatula, carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the fried rice to cover it. Repeat with the remaining egg mixture and rice for the second serving.

Step 14

Remove from heat and gently slide the omelette rice onto a serving plate.

Step 15

Garnish with additional ketchup or fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
