Hawaiian Breakfast Fried Rice

Ingredients

• 5 thick cut bacon slices (diced)
• 1 sweet onion (diced)
• 1 red bell pepper (diced)
• salt & pepper
• 7 ounce ham steak (cubed)
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 cup chopped fresh pineapple
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
• 4 cups cooked day old rice
• 3 tablespoons chopped scallions (green parts only)
• 6 over easy fried eggs

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon fat in the pan.

2. 2

   Add the onion to the hot pan and cook until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the bell pepper and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Add the cubed ham to the pan and cook, in one even layer, until slightly browned and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and pineapples and cook for another 2 minutes.

4. 4

   In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce, honey, and ginger. Add the rice to the pan and stir until everything is combined and heated through, about 3 minutes. Pour the sauce over the rice, and return the bacon to the pan.

5. 5

   Cook the fried rice until golden and slightly crispy in parts, another 2 to 3 minutes. Top each serving with scallions and an over-easy fried egg.
