Ingredients:

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
Coarse salt
1/2 cup finely chopped kimchi (drained)

1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and a pinch of salt. Cook until fragrant.
2. Turn the heat to high and add the kimchi and cook for 2 or 3 minutes until it begins to crisp on the edges. Add the soy sauce, chili paste, scallion and rice and stir thoroughly to combine.
