The highlight of this dish is the glazed fried bacon. Its sweet and savory bits perfectly complement the flavors of both the rice and vegetables. Snow peas, tomatoes, and bell peppers add richness to the rice, while the fried egg provides an excellent source of protein. Use leftover rice from last night's dinner or store-bought frozen rice. Either way, this homemade dish is delicious, just like something you'd get at a Chinese restaurant, and it's quick to prepare.

- 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; cook until the bacon is glazed, about 1 minute. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl; pour the rendered fat into the bowl. Wipe the skillet clean.
- In the same skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of rendered bacon fat over medium heat. Whisk the eggs with 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a medium bowl; add to the skillet and cook, without stirring, until set, 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and break the eggs into large pieces.
- Heat the remaining fat in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes and ginger; cook until the tomatoes are soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the peas, bell pepper, and green onions; cook until crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce; cook until the rice is heated through, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and cook for 1 minute. Top with crispy bacon.
