- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 4 cups day-old cooked rice
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar

- Heat sesame oil and vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
