Pineapple Fried Rice - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 -10 eggs, slightly beaten
    1 cup diced onion
    3 cups brown rice, cooled
    1/2 lime (optional)
    1 tablespoon brown sugar
    2 cups cooked chicken, cut into half inch cubes
    3 stalks green onions
    2 cups pineapple, cut into half inch cubes
    2 -3 stalks celery, cut into slices, diagonally
    5 tablespoons soy sauce
    3 tablespoons oyster sauce
    1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
    garlic powder (optional)
    white pepper, to taste
    salt, to taste
    1 -2 tablespoon oil
Preparation
    Cut onion into slices then chop into small squares. Fry on small saucepan in 1 tablespoon butter for 15 minutes on low heat until onions turn light brown, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.
    Add brown sugar and dash of pepper and dried oregano (if you have it), and let sit for another 5 minutes before turning off heat.
    In a wok or large skillet, add 1 tablespoon oil until it lightly smokes before adding the eggs and chopped green onions. Scramble the eggs.
    Add pineapple, oyster sauce, garlic powder (I didn't have any fresh garlic on hand). Add diced chicken (or pretty much any meat of your choice) and stir evenly.
    Add rice, sugar, soy sauce (I use the Maggi Seasoning brand that comes in a square bottle - much cheaper at Asian markets, as opposed to buying it at American chains e.g. Vons or Ralphs, where they jack the price up almost double).
    Now add in the caramelized onions you've prepared in the separate saucepan and mix it thoroughly into your rice and squeeze the lime, then mix.
    Add celery (I tend to add it toward the end to keep its crispness)
    Add white pepper and salt to taste. I didn't add much salt because I figured the soy sauce and oyster sauce would be enough. Enjoy!
