By Becky Excell
Ingredients
-
3 tbsp garlic-infused oil
-
100g chicken breast fillet, thinly sliced, or cooked king prawns
-
3 tbsp frozen peas
-
Sweet chilli sauce, to serve
-
5 large eggs
-
1 tbsp gluten-free soy sauce
-
1 tbsp sesame oil
-
1 tsp sugar
-
¼ tsp salt
-
2 tsp water
-
Handful of spring onion greens, sliced
For the egg mixture
Method
STEP 1
Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl, then add the soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, salt, water and spring onion greens. Mix until smooth and combined.
STEP 2
Place a large wok over a high heat and add the garlic-infused oil. If using chicken, once the oil is hot, add the chicken and stir-fry until sealed, followed by the frozen peas. Briefly fry util the peas are bright and green. If using cooked prawns, add the peas and prawns at the same time and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
STEP 3
Pour in the egg mixture and immediately stir so that the peas and prawns/chicken are evenly dispersed.
STEP 4
Gently stir occasionally to create a chunkier texture (or it will form a very flat, more omelette-like texture). After 2 minutes, use a spatula to break the omelette up into quarters, then flip and fry for a further minute.
STEP 5
To serve, drizzle a little sweet chilli sauce or gluten-free dark soy sauce over the top.
Tips
This recipe is a quick and easy way to use up leftovers, avoiding waste and cost. Feel free to swap in any leftovers (such as cooked chicken or veggies, frying until heated through. Use any vegetables you like – just fry them at the beginning until slightly softened; red capsicum and mushrooms work wonderfully.
