Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1 lb chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the 1 lb chicken breast into thin strips. Mince the 2 garlic cloves. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  2. 2

    Add the chicken and garlic to the skillet. Stir-fry until the chicken is golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Add the 2 tbsp soy sauce and toss to coat.

  3. 3

    Add the 2 cups spinach to the skillet and stir until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  4. 4

    In a separate nonstick skillet, heat 1 tsp oil over medium heat. Crack the 2 eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set and the edges are crispy, about 3-4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Divide the 2 cups cooked rice between two bowls. Top with the chicken-spinach mixture and a fried egg each. Serve with cucumber slices if desired.
