Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the 2 green onions thinly, separating white and green parts. Cut the 0.5 lb chicken thighs into bite-size pieces.

  2. Step 2

    In a small skillet, combine the 0.25 cup water, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and white parts of the green onions. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.

  3. Step 3

    Add the chicken pieces and cook, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Beat the 2 eggs in a bowl, then pour evenly over the chicken. Cover and cook until the eggs are just set but still soft, about 2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Divide the 2 cups cooked rice between two bowls. Top with the chicken and egg mixture, and sprinkle with the green onion greens.
