Savory Garlic Chicken Fried Brown Rice

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked brown rice
• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 2 green onions, chopped

Directions:

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
2. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the garlic and onion, and sauté until fragrant and the onion is translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
3. Stir in the peas and carrots, and cook for another 2 minutes.
4. Add the cooked brown rice to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, until the rice is heated through.
5. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the soy sauce and sesame oil, stirring to coat the rice and chicken evenly.
6. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
7. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
