  4. Cover the pan and allow the eggs to steam for 5-7 minutes. Adjust the heat accordingly.
  5. Garnish with extra green onions and a sprinkle of white pepper before serving.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in a microwave. You can pre-cook the meats a day in advance.
