Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, sriracha, paprika, mirin, and garlic powder. Whisk until smooth and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a large wok or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add olive oil and butter. Once melted, add chicken thighs, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown, about 5-6 minutes. Stir in soy sauce, hoisin sauce, mirin, garlic, and honey, cooking until sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. In the same pan, add olive oil and butter. Toss in onions, mushrooms, and zucchini. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until softened and caramelized. Add a dash of soy sauce.
  4. In a separate hot wok, melt butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Add cooked rice, soy sauce, and oyster sauce, stirring for 4-5 minutes. Create a well, add eggs, scramble, then mix everything. Incorporate frozen peas.
  5. Remove fried rice from heat and fold in chicken and vegetables. Serve hot, drizzling the chilled Yum Yum sauce over the top.
