6. Cornstarch

   1 tsp

7. Salt

   1/4 tsp

8. Peanut oil

   2 tbsp

1. Step 1: Marinate the chicken briefly

   Cut the chicken breast into small strips. Mix it with cornstarch, 1 tsp seasoning sauce, and 1 tsp peanut oil. Let it rest for about 10 minutes.
   Note: The marination step isn’t pictured, but it’s simple and quick—just mix and let it rest before cooking.

2. Step 2: Cook the chicken until just done

   Heat 1 tbsp oil in a nonstick pan. Add the chicken and cook until the surface turns lightly golden. Remove it and let it cool slightly before shredding.

   

3. Step 3: Toss the chicken with rice

   Add the shredded chicken back to the pan along with the rice. Break up the rice gently so it warms evenly.

   

4. Step 4: Add greens and seasonings

   Add the chopped greens, salt, soy sauce, and the remaining 1 tsp seasoning sauce. Stir until the greens soften and the rice is coated.

   

5. Step 5: Finish and serve

   Give everything a final stir. If the rice loosens easily and the color looks even, it’s ready to serve.

   

1. Keep the cornstarch on the chicken—this thin coating helps it stay tender.

2. Letting the rice warm briefly in the pan helps it separate naturally.

3. Chopping the greens smaller helps them blend into the rice without clumping.
