Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and sliced shallots, stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the diced carrot, red bell pepper, and sliced green beans. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Push the vegetables to the side of the pan and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil into the cleared space.
Crack the eggs into the open space and scramble them quickly, mixing with the veggies as they cook.
Add the cooked jasmine rice to the pan and combine well with the vegetables and eggs.
Add the shredded chicken breast to the pan, stirring to distribute evenly.
Pour the fish sauce, sugar-free soy sauce, and lime juice over the rice mixture. Add chili paste if desired.
