Rinse the dry jasmine rice under cold water until clear, then cook according to package directions; once finished, spread the rice on a baking sheet to cool and dry out.
Cut the raw chicken breast into bite-sized cubes and season evenly with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and ground ginger.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the toasted sesame oil, swirling to coat the surface.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and sauté until golden brown and cooked through, approximately 5 to 6 minutes.
Push the chicken to the outer edges of the pan, crack the egg into the center, and scramble quickly until just set.
Add the frozen peas and carrots to the pan, stirring for 2 minutes until they are heated through and tender-crisp.
Incorporate the cooled rice into the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a spatula, and drizzle the tamari over the mixture.
Toss all ingredients together for 3 minutes until the rice is slightly crispy and fragrant, then garnish with sliced raw green onions before serving.
