Instructions
Start by preparing all your ingredients. Thinly slice the shallots and garlic, chop the chicken breast into small pieces, slice the red chili, and julienne the carrot.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium heat.
Add the sliced shallots, garlic, and ginger to the pan. Sauté until the shallots are translucent and aromatic.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chicken pieces to the pan. Stir-fry until the chicken is cooked through and lightly golden.
Add the red chili, carrot, green beans, and cabbage to the pan. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Push the chicken and vegetables to one side of the pan. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the other side, and pour in the cooked jasmine rice. Stir to combine everything.
Add the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Mix well to ensure the rice and vegetables are evenly coated.
Add the lime juice and stir-fry everything together for another 2 minutes to blend the flavors.
Remove from heat and stir in chopped spring onions.
Serve hot, topped with a fried egg and sprinkled with fried shallots.
