## Ingredients List

– 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (preferably day-old)
– 1 cup boneless chicken breast, diced
– 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, bell peppers)
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 medium onion, chopped
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
– 1 teaspoon curry powder
– 2 eggs, beaten
– 2 green onions, sliced
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Lime wedges for serving (optional)

## Instructions/Steps

1. **Prepare the Ingredients**: Ensure your rice is cold and clump-free. Dice the chicken and chop the vegetables and onion. Set aside.

2. **Cook the Chicken**: In a large wok or skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and stir-fry until cooked through (about 5-7 minutes). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. **Sauté Aromatics**: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Sauté the minced garlic and chopped onion until fragrant and translucent, which should take about 2-3 minutes.

4. **Add Vegetables**: Stir in the mixed vegetables and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes until they are tender.

5. **Incorporate Rice and Chicken**: Add the day-old rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps with a spatula and mix everything thoroughly. Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet.

6. **Season the Rice**: Drizzle the soy sauce and oyster sauce over the rice. Sprinkle in the curry powder. Stir well to combine and heat everything through.

7. **Scramble the Eggs**: Push the rice mixture to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs into the empty side. Scramble the eggs until cooked, then mix them into the rice.

8. **Final Touches**: Stir in the sliced green onions, and adjust seasoning to taste.

9. **Serve**: Plate your Singapore Chicken Fried Rice, adding lime wedges on the side if desired. Enjoy!
