Nasi Goreng Ayam (Chicken Fried Rice)

Ingredients

• 4 cups Cooked rice
• 1 lb Chicken breast, diced
• 2 large Eggs
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 medium Shallot, minced
• 1 teaspoon Chili paste (sambal oelek)
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup Green onions, chopped

Instructions

1. 1Heat the 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large 12-inch skillet or wok over medium-high heat, which is about 375°F (190°C).
2. 2Add the 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1 medium minced shallot to the hot oil. Sauté for 1 to 2 minutes until they smell fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
3. 3Add the 1 lb of diced chicken breast to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, until the chicken is browned on all sides and cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
4. 4Push the cooked chicken to one side of the skillet. Crack the 2 large eggs into the empty space. Scramble the eggs gently with a spatula until they are fully cooked, about 2 to 3 minutes.
5. 5Add the 4 cups of cooked rice to the skillet. Use your spatula to break up any clumps of rice.
6. 6Pour the 3 tablespoons of soy sauce and the 2 tablespoons of sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) over the rice and chicken mixture. Add the 1 teaspoon of chili paste (sambal oelek).
7. 7Stir-fry all the ingredients together for 3 to 5 minutes, ensuring the rice, chicken, and eggs are evenly coated with the sauces and heated through. The mixture should be well combined.
8. 8Remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle the 1/4 cup of chopped green onions over the Nasi Goreng Ayam and serve immediately.
