INGREDIENTS

  • Main

    • 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
    • 🥒 ½ cucumber, sliced
    • 2 green onions, chopped
    • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
    • 🍋 1 lime, cut into wedges
    • 4 green Thai chile peppers

STEPS

1

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.

2

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.

3

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.

4

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.
