Description

This quick and easy, one-pot recipe will make your next breakfast feng shui by shifting variety and flavor into overdrive for your morning meal.

Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons peanut oil, divided, or more as needed
  • ½ onion, chopped
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup diced fully cooked ham
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cups cooked brown rice
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat a wok or skillet on high heat for 1 minute.
  2. 2. Coat wok thoroughly with 2 tablespoons peanut oil; reduce heat to medium. Cook and stir onion until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes.
  3. 3. Crack eggs directly into the wok. Stir quickly to scramble until eggs begin to set but are still fluid, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  4. 4. Stir ham into the wok and cook just until warmed through, about 1 minute.
  5. 5. Stir butter and remaining 1 tablespoon of peanut oil into the wok; let warm for 10 seconds. Add rice and stir constantly for 3 to 4 minutes, adding more oil if rice begins to stick.
  6. 6. Season fried rice with salt and pepper; top with Cheddar cheese.
