# Step-by-Step:
01 - Prepare all ingredients before cooking: slice vegetables, mince garlic and ginger, and have cold rice ready.
02 - Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add ground chicken and cook, breaking up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Remove chicken from pan and set aside.
03 - In the same pan, add remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Sauté garlic, ginger, and white parts of green onions for 1 minute until fragrant.
04 - Add cabbage and carrots. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes until just tender but still crisp. Add bean sprouts, if using, and cook for 1 minute more.
05 - Push vegetables to the side of the pan. Crack eggs into the empty space and scramble until just set, then mix into the vegetables.
06 - Add cold rice and return cooked chicken to the pan. Stir everything together, breaking up any clumps of rice.
07 - Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, white pepper, and chili flakes. Toss everything well to combine and heat through for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
08 - Remove from heat. Garnish with sesame seeds and extra green onions before serving.
