Directions
Heat oil in wok or skillet set over medium heat; add coleslaw blend and stir-fry for 3 minutes. Add rice and chicken, tossing for 2 to 3 minutes or until heated through. Stir in Spicy Ketchup and 1 tbsp (15 ml) water until well combined. Remove from heat. Stir in green onion. Cover and keep warm while preparing omelette.
Whisk eggs with 2 tsp (10 ml) butter until butter is broken into small pieces. Melt remaining butter in an 8-inch (15 cm) skillet set over medium heat. Add eggs; cook stirring for 1 minute or until egg forms soft curds. Cover and cook for 1 minute or until just set (top should still be curd-like).
Mound fried rice in a large, shallow serving bowl and carefully slide omelette over rice to cover. Garnish with additional Spicy Ketchup, green onion and sesame seeds (if using).
Tips
Spicy Ketchup: Blend 1/4 cup (50 ml) ketchup with 1 tbsp (15 ml) soy sauce and 1 tsp (5 ml) each Worcestershire sauce, rice vinegar and granulated sugar. Stir in 1/2 tsp (2 ml) Sriracha or another hot sauce (add more to taste if desired).
Replace chicken with leftover cubed pork, steak or tofu.
Top with sliced avocado for an indulgent garnish.
