Notes

  • Vegetarian Option: Swap the chicken with tofu or tempeh for a plant-based version.
  • Rice Substitutes: Brown rice or cauliflower rice can be used as alternatives for a healthier twist.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. Reheat and top with a fresh fried egg when serving.
  • Customization: Feel free to add extra veggies like mushrooms, bell peppers, or even kimchi for added flavor.
