Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. Add the cooked rice into the skillet, stir-frying for 3-4 minutes until heated through and slightly crispy.
  4. Add the crispy bacon and scrambled eggs back into the skillet along with chopped green onions. Mix thoroughly and adjust seasoning if needed.
  5. Serve the Breakfast Fried Rice immediately while hot, ensuring generous portions.
