1/4 cupchopped carrots
1/4 cupchopped broccoli

1

This note is for my beautiful children. Gather all your ingredients and read the entire recipe before starting.
2

Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
3

Turn up heat and Cook and stir chicken, carrots, broccoli in melted butter until chicken is cooked through 7 to 10 minutes. Don’t over cook the chicken and the vegies should still be a little crunchy.
4

Remove mixture to a bowl and return skillet to medium heat.
5

Scramble egg in the skillet until completely set. Return the chicken mixture to the skillet. Along with all the juices in the bottom of the bowl.
6

Don’t lick the bowl.
7

Stir in rice, soy sauce, garlic and ginger and cook and stir until heated through. 7 to 10 minutes. Don’t walk away from the skillet as you’ll burn it or dry it out. It should smell fantastic.
8

Sprinkle mixture with chopped green onions. Chopping them on the bias looks prettier but not necessary. Nope I’m not telling you what bias means.
9

Serve immediately in a deep bowl.
10

If you don’t like the vegies in the recipe use what you have but remember that the carrots add sweetness and the broccoli is good for you.
