# Steps to Follow:
01 - Prepare all ingredients before starting: slice vegetables, beat eggs, and have rice ready.
02 - Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, approximately 5 minutes. Break up any clumps as it cooks.
03 - Add minced garlic and ginger; stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
04 - Add cabbage and carrots. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes until slightly softened but retaining crispness.
05 - Push the mixture to one side of the pan. Add remaining oil and pour in the beaten eggs. Scramble gently until just set, then combine with the chicken and vegetables.
06 - Add the chilled rice, breaking up any clumps. Drizzle with soy sauce, oyster sauce if using, sesame oil, rice vinegar, black pepper, white pepper, and sugar. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes, ensuring everything is well combined and the rice is heated through.
07 - Stir in green onions and cook for 1 minute more.
08 - Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
09 - Serve hot, garnished with crispy fried onions and toasted sesame seeds.
