Chef's tip
Coconut aminos are sweeter and less salty; taste and adjust the seasoning.
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp sugar
1 ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Ingredient note
Black pepper can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~3/8 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.

For the rice

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into ¾-inch pieces
¼ tsp salt
3 tbsp neutral oil, divided (such as vegetable oil or canola oil)
3 large eggs, beaten
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
Ingredient note
Fresh ginger can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~3/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
6 oz snow peas, strings removed
3 green onions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
Ingredient note
Interstitial cystitis flags onions because alliums can irritate a sensitive bladder, but this recipe uses only the milder scallion green tops, which is likely fine for most. If you prefer to always avoid scallions, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
4 cups cooked long-grain white rice, preferably day-old and cold

For serving

1 tsp toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

1
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and black pepper until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
2
Season the chicken pieces with the salt. Heat a large wok or 12-inch skillet over high heat until very hot, then add 1 tbsp of the neutral oil. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, for 2 minutes, then stir and continue cooking for 2–3 minutes more, until the pieces are opaque throughout with no pink at the center. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
