Prepare all ingredients before cooking: cube the chicken, thinly slice the steak, mince the garlic (and ginger if using), and slice the green onions.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed chicken and sliced steak. Season lightly with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and fully cooked through (about 5β6 minutes). Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the minced garlic (and ginger if using), and sautΓ© for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Push the garlic to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side and scramble them gently. Once fully cooked, mix the eggs with the garlic.
Add the frozen peas and carrots to the skillet. Cook for 2β3 minutes until they are warmed through.
Add the cooked and cooled rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps of rice with a spatula and stir to combine with the eggs and vegetables.
Drizzle the gluten-free soy sauce over the rice and mix well to evenly coat the rice with the sauce.
Add the cooked chicken and steak back into the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for another 2β3 minutes to heat through.
Remove the fried rice from heat and garnish with the sliced green onions.
Serve the gluten-free steak and chicken fried rice immediately and enjoy!
