Non-Fried Rice (because you don’t have a wok)
Ingredients:
* 4 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil, divided
* 2 carrots, diced
* 2 celery stalks, diced
* 2 zucchini, diced
* 4 scallions, sliced (white and green parts separated)
* 2 eggs
* Salt and pepper
* ¼ teaspoon five-spice blend
* 2 cups cooked rice
* 1 juicy lime
Warm 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet. Add the carrots, celery, zucchini, and the white parts of the scallions. Season with salt, pepper, and five-spice blend and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Break the eggs into a bowl and whisk. Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, then add the eggs, scrambling and cooking them in the pan. Mix with the vegetables and cook until the eggs are fully set, then stir in the rice.
Transfer to a large serving dish. Drizzle with a little more oil, squeeze the lime juice over the top, and garnish with the green parts of the scallions.
