Ingredients
- 5 oz Canadian bacon , chopped into pieces
- ½ lb pork sausage , (I use jimmy dean)
- 4 or 5 Tablespoons butter , divided
- 5 egg beaten, large
- ½ bell pepper , diced
- 2 medium carrot peeled and diced
- 1 small white onion , diced
- 1/3 cup peas frozen
- salt freshly ground
- black pepper freshly ground
- 4 cloves garlic , minced
- 5 cups rice I prefer short-grain white rice, cooked and chilled
- 3 green onions , thinly sliced
- 4-5 Tablespoons soy sauce low-sodium
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
- Cook meats: Add Canadian bacon in a single layer to a large non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium heat. Cook undisturbed for 2 minutes. Stir and cook undisturbed for 1 minute. Remove to a large bowl. Add pork sausage to skillet and cook over medium heat, crumbling into small pieces as it cooks, until browned. Remove to bowl with Canadian bacon.
- Sauté Veggies: (If there’s no grease left in the pan from the meat, add 1 Tablespoon oil or butter). Add veggies to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Sauté over medium high heat for a few minutes until tender. Stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds. Remove to same bowl.
- Scramble Eggs: Reduce heat to medium low. Add 2 Tablespoons of butter to the pan. Once melted, add eggs and cook until scrambled, stirring occasionally. Remove eggs to bowl.
- Fry Rice: Add remaining 2 Tablespoons of butter to the pan and once melted, add rice. Spread rice into an even layer and cook over medium-high heat. Add green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil and toss to combine. Allow the rice to cook undisturbed, stirring every minute or so, to allow it to crisp a little.
- Combine: Return everything in the bowl back to the pan and toss to combine. Taste and season with additional soy sauce, salt or pepper.
Notes
- Make Ahead Instructions: The meats can be cooked ahead, stored in an airtight container. All the vegetables can be chopped then kept in the fridge for up to a day in advance.
- Gluten-free Adaptations: Use gluten-free soy sauce.
