# How to Make It:

01 - Prepare all ingredients before starting: slice vegetables, beat eggs, and have chilled rice ready.
02 - Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes, breaking up clumps as it cooks.
03 - Add minced garlic and grated ginger; stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
04 - Add sliced cabbage and julienned carrots. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened but still crisp.
05 - Push the mixture to one side of the pan. Add remaining oil and pour in beaten eggs. Scramble gently until just set, then mix into the chicken and vegetable mixture.
06 - Add chilled rice, breaking up any clumps. Drizzle with soy sauce, oyster sauce if using, sesame oil, rice vinegar, black pepper, white pepper, and sugar. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, ensuring everything is well combined and rice is heated through.
07 - Stir in sliced green onions and cook for 1 minute more.
08 - Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, garnished with crispy fried onions and toasted sesame seeds.
