Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups cooked white rice preferably day-old
  • 6 strips of bacon chopped
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 3 green onions sliced
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet or wok, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.

  4. Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps. Stir everything together.
  5. Pour the soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice mixture, then sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  6. Add the cooked bacon and sliced green onions, mixing until everything is evenly distributed and heated through.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with extra green onions if desired.
