Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine or long-grain rice, day-old and chilled
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or sesame oil
  • 2 large eggs, beaten, room temperature
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, diced zucchini)
  • 1/2 cup green onions, sliced
  • 8 oz chicken breast or thigh, diced small (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • For Yum Yum Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons tomato paste or ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Water to thin, as needed

Instructions

  1. Dice the chicken or protein choice into bite-sized pieces. Chop onion, mince garlic, slice green onions, and measure veggies. Whisk eggs and set aside.
  2. In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, tomato paste, rice vinegar, sugar, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Whisk until smooth. Add water a teaspoon at a time until sauce is drizzle-able. Refrigerate.
  3. Preheat Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat (around 375°F). Add 1 tablespoon oil and spread evenly.
  4. Add diced chicken to griddle, season with salt and pepper. Stir frequently until cooked through with golden sear. Remove and set aside.
  5. Add remaining oil to griddle. Cook onions and garlic until fragrant and translucent. Add mixed veggies and cook until tender but crisp.
  6. Push veggies to side, pour in beaten eggs, scramble quickly until just set but moist.
  7. Add chilled rice, break up clumps and mix. Return cooked chicken to griddle and mix evenly.
  8. Drizzle soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sprinkle sugar over rice. Toss well to coat. Adjust salt, pepper, or soy sauce to taste.
  9. Stir in sliced green onions and remove from heat.
  10. Plate fried rice and drizzle generously with Yum Yum sauce.

Notes

Use day-old rice to prevent mushiness. Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the griddle. Scramble eggs separately for fluffiness. Adjust Yum Yum sauce thickness with water. For gluten-free, swap soy sauce with tamari and use dairy-free mayo if needed. Reheat leftovers on griddle or skillet to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
