Steps
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the onion and cook 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the frozen vegetables, cook and stir for 3-4 minutes until tender.
Add the rice and press into a single layer. Let cook for 2 minutes, then stir and press down again. Repeat this process several times until rice is warmed through and slightly toasted.
Meanwhile, stir together the soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium, pour over rice and stir to coat.
Push the rice to the edges of the skillet. Add another drizzle of oil to the middle of the skillet and add the eggs, quickly scrambling with a spatula but not mixing with the rice.
Scramble and cook until cooked through, then stir into the rice and serve.

Reviews
Michelle Lawson on 2026-02-28 (5 stars): I made this today, I cubed up some leftover chicken breast. It came out delicious. It was so easy to make. Thank you for sharing, it's our new family favorite fried rice recipe.
Tim on 2025-08-01 (5 stars): First time making this dish and it was a huge hit, especially since I paired it with your delicious Mongolian Beef. Thanks for this and all your other great recipes!
Janice Keeler on 2025-07-06 (5 stars): One of my family's favorites. I usually nuke broccoli bits, plop into iced water to remain bright green and add in towards the end. We like to add peanuts on the top for crunch! Great easy recipe.
