Ingredients

  • 5 cups leftover rice (day-old, cold)
  • 1 tablespoon Maggi Savor
  • 6 grams Maggi Magic Sarap
  • 8 oz boneless chicken breast (diced)
  • 3 pieces eggs (beaten)
  • 1/2 cup frozen green peas
  • 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
  • 6 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 6 tablespoons cooking oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine the diced chicken breast and Maggi Savor in a bowl. Mix well and let it sit for 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and cook while stirring until scrambled and firm. Break into small pieces, then set aside.

  3. 3

    Heat the remaining oil in the same pan. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until cooked through. Smaller pieces cook faster and mix better with the rice.

  4. 4

    Add the garlic and cook until it starts to brown.

  5. 5

    Add the green peas and stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Put the leftover rice into the pan. Toss to combine and cook over high heat for 2 minutes. Leftover rice works best because it is less sticky.

  7. 7

    Add the Maggi Magic Sarap and continue cooking for 3 minutes while tossing.

  8. 8

    Return the cooked eggs to the pan. Add the green onions and toss to combine.

  9. 9

    Transfer to a serving plate and serve.
