1 Dissolve the brown sugar in the soy sauce in a small bowl. Set aside.
2 Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan or wok on medium-high heat. Add the diced red onion and bell pepper and saute until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, and stir in the garlic and grated ginger. Cook for a minute more.
3 Add the beaten eggs and stir until just cooked. Add the cooked rice, and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook for a couple minutes more, stirring often.
4 Add the peas, salmon, and green onions. (Be gentle with the salmon so you don't break it up too much.) Stir in the soy sauce mixture and remove from heat. Serve immediately, garnished with cilantro. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
