Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
- 4 cups cooked white rice (preferably cold)
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, green beans, corn)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 green onions, sliced for garnish
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes for a bit of heat
Instructions
- Prepare your crockpot by lightly greasing it with non-stick spray.
- Place cubed chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot.
- Add diced onions and minced garlic over the chicken.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, and oyster sauce. Pour the mixture evenly over the chicken.
- Add the frozen mixed vegetables on top.
- Cover the crockpot with the lid and set it to cook on low heat for 4 hours or high heat for 2 hours.
- After cooking time, remove the lid and stir in the cold cooked rice, mixing it well with the chicken and vegetables.

- Stir everything together again, incorporating the eggs throughout the dish.
- Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. If you like it spicy, add crushed red pepper flakes.
