Chicken-and-Cabbage Fried Rice

Ingredients

5 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 1/2 cups cored and chopped napa cabbage (about 1/4 small head) 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped 4 scallions, chopped, white and green parts separated (about 1 cup total) 2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 5 cups cooked brown or white rice 3 large eggs, lightly beaten 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce 2 cups shredded cooked boneless, skinless chicken, from a rotisserie bird (about 8 oz.)

Preparation

1. Warm 2 Tbsp. oil in a wok or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until oil is shimmering. Add cabbage, onion and white parts of scallions and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add ginger and garlic to skillet, toss to combine with cabbage mixture and stir-fry for an additional 15 to 20 seconds. Transfer to a wide, shallow bowl or plate. 2. Warm remaining 3 Tbsp. oil in same skillet. Add rice, mix to coat with oil and spread out in pan (but don't press flat). Let rice cook undisturbed for 2 minutes, then stir. Let cook undisturbed 1 minute longer, then push to edges of pan. Add eggs to center of pan and stir to scramble. Break eggs into pieces and stir into rice. 3.
