Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
6 slices bacon, sliced crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, finely chopped
1 large tomato, cubed
½ cup chopped fresh pineapple
5 cups cooked jasmine rice, cooled
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
3 eggs, beaten
Garnish:
½ cucumber, sliced
2 green onions, chopped
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 lime, cut into wedges
4 green Thai chile peppers
Directions
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat and cook bacon until browned and crisp, about 5 minutes. Drain, reserving bacon grease in a bowl. Spoon 2 tablespoons grease back into the skillet.
Increase heat to medium-high and cook garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in tomato and pineapple and stir-fry until warmed through, about 2 minutes.
Increase heat to high and add 1 tablespoon bacon grease. Add rice and stir-fry, breaking up with a spatula so it gets coated well with bacon grease. Cook for about 3 minutes. Season with ketchup, soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper.
Move rice mixture to one side of the skillet or wok and pour beaten eggs onto the empty side. Stir-fry until eggs are almost set, 2 to 3 minutes. Mix eggs with rice mixture. Fold in bacon bits. Serve with cucumber, green onions, cilantro, lemon wedges, and chile peppers.
Cook's Note:
You can also use canned pineapple instead of fresh.
