    Instructions
     

    • Cook the rice according to directions.

    • Add the onion to a large skillet with 1 T olive oil. Sauté the onion for a few minutes on medium heat.
    • Add the sliced carrot and stir fry for about 5 minutes, to soften the carrots.

    • Add the peas and cook all together for a few minutes.
    • Add 2 T tamari to the pan and stir all together.
    • Slowly fold in the rice to the veggies mixture, add more tamari as needed.
    • If the rice is dry you can add a little water to help blend all together.
    • If adding in the chicken or scrambled egg, do so now.
    • Stir everything together to coat all with the sauce.
    • Serve with your favorite Chinese dishes or chicken, steak meals. Or simply enjoy it alone.
