Kimchi Bokkeumbap Fried Rice

Instructions

1. In a large non-stick skillet or wok, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.

2. In the same skillet, add the chopped kimchi and sauté for a few minutes until it starts to soften and become fragrant.

3. Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon. Stir well to combine the rice with the kimchi.

4. Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice, then pour in the kimchi juice. Stir everything together until well mixed.

5. Push the rice mixture to one side of the skillet and crack the eggs into the empty side. Scramble the eggs until just set, then mix them into the rice.

6. Add the crispy bacon back into the skillet, along with the sliced green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.

7. Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the Kimchi Bokkeumbap Fried Rice with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro, if desired.

8. Serve the fried rice hot, and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in each bite!
