CHICKEN-FRIED RICE

1 egg
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
3 Tbsp. oil
1/2 tsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. grated ginger root or 1 tsp. ground ginger
3 c. cooked rice
4 green onions, sliced
2 c. cubed cooked chicken
1 1/2 c. frozen peas, slightly thawed
1/4 c. chopped peanuts

In a small bowl, beat egg with fork. Stir in soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

Heat a large, nonstick skillet or a wok over high heat. Add oil, and stir fry the garlic and ginger in hot oil for about 30 seconds. Add rice and onions, and stir fry for 5 minutes. Add chicken, vegetables, and nuts. Cook, stirring often, for 6 to 8 minutes.

Drizzle egg mixture over rice mixture, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute. Make sure egg is cooked, and serve immediately.
