Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
• 3 cups water

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; add rice and cook, stirring often, until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook until no longer pink in centers, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to saucepan with rice.

Step 3

Cook bacon in the wok or skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until cooked through but not crunchy, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Drain and discard all but 1 to 2 tablespoons drippings from the wok. Cut bacon into small pieces; set aside.

Step 4

Return the wok to medium-high heat. Add rice, chicken, bacon, green onions, and soy sauce; cook and stir until mixture is heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
