Arroz Chaufa (Peruvian Fried Rice)

Steps

1. 1In a small bowl add the soy sauce, sugar and green onions to a bowl.
2. 2In a separate bowl, add the oil to the meat and season with salt and pepper.
3. 3Turn your stove to medium heat and add a little bit of oil. Add the meat. Brown and sauté for 2-4 minutes, but you don’t have to cook it all the way. Remove from the pan onto a plate and set aside.
4. 4Then add the onion, red and cubanelle peppers. Season with salt, pepper and cumin. Scrape the bottom of the bowl with all the flavor the meat left behind. Cook down the onions and peppers until they have softened for 6-8 minutes on medium. If it looks dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of oil to the pan.
5. 5Once your onions and peppers have softened, add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
6. 6Add the rice and allow it to mix together with everything for a minute. Let the rice settle a little on bottom to try to get parts of the rice crispy. Once the rice is mixed in, add the cooked meat pieces back in.
7. 7Add the soy sauce mixture and allow the rice to soak it up for 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed with salt, pepper, cumin or soy.
8. 8Push the rice to the side and add the beaten eggs. Scramble them and once they are cooked, incorporate them into the rice.
9. 9Garnish with herbs and serve warm.
