Servings: persons

1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
3 slices thick cut bacon thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
6 large eggs
kosher salt
1/2 pint grape tomatoes halved
1 tablespoon ginger minced peeled
6 ounces snow peas trimmed and halved
1 red bell pepper or orange, yellow, thinly sliced
1 bunch scallions thinly sliced
4 cups white rice or cooked brown, thawed if frozen

1
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sesame oil and bacon; cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is almost crisp, 4 minutes. Add the sugar and 1 teaspoon soy sauce; stir-fry until the bacon is glazed, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl using a slotted spoon; reserve the drippings in a separate bowl. Wipe out the skillet.
2
Heat 2 teaspoons of the drippings in the skillet over medium heat. Whisk the eggs and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; add to the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until just set, 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and break up the eggs into large pieces.
3
Heat the remaining drippings in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes and ginger; stir-fry until the tomatoes are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the snow peas, bell pepper and scallions; stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and the remaining 2 teaspoons soy sauce; stir-fry until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Stir in the eggs and cook 1 minute. Top with the bacon.
