• Add chicken to skillet and cook over high heat, stirring infrequently, until nicely browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Add to bowl with vegetables. Drain peas if necessary and add them to skillet; cook, shaking pan, for about a minute, or until hot. Add them to bowl.
• Put remaining oil in skillet, followed by garlic and ginger. About 15 seconds later, add rice, a bit at a time, breaking up clumps with your fingers and tossing it with oil. When all rice is added, make a well in the center and break eggs into it; scramble them a bit, then incorporate into rice.
• Return chicken and vegetables to skillet and stir to integrate. Add wine or water and cook, stirring, for about a minute. Add soy sauce and sesame oil, then taste and add salt and pepper if necessary. Turn off heat, stir in scallion or cilantro, and serve.

CHINESE FRIED RICE WITH SHRIMP AND PEAS

Steps:

• Beat one of the eggs in a small bowl and salt lightly. Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil over medium-high heat in a small nonstick frying pan, and add the beaten egg. Swirl in the pan until the egg forms an even coat, like a thin pancake. When the egg is cooked through, roll up and slide onto a plate. Cut in thin strips (you can use a scissors or a knife). Set aside.
• Heat a wok or large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water evaporates upon contact. Add the remaining oil and swirl around the pan, then add the shrimp and cook about one minute, stirring and tossing with a spatula or wok scoop until just about cooked through and pink. Add the garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the sherry, and stir everything together. When the sizzling stops, pour in the remaining beaten egg. Stir-fry until scrambled, and add the rice. Cook the rice - scooping it up, then pressing it into the pan and scooping it up again - for about two minutes. Stir in white and lighter green parts of the scallions, the peas and the soy sauce. Stir together for about half a minute, and transfer to a warm serving platter. Sprinkle the egg strips, scallion greens and cilantro over the top. Serve hot.
