    Ready when: Everything is next to the stove.

    Ready when: Chicken is golden and white inside.

  3. 3

    Scramble the eggs 1 min

    Add the rest of the oil, pour in the eggs and scramble into soft pieces.

    Ready when: Eggs are just set.

  4. 4

    Add garlic and vegetables 3 min

    Add garlic for 20 seconds, then carrots and peas. Stir-fry.

    Ready when: Carrot is bright and slightly soft.

  5. 5

    Add rice and toss 4 min

    Add the rice and spread it out. Let it sit 30 seconds, then toss. Add soy sauce around the edge of the pan, the chicken and pepper, and toss until everything is hot.
