We all are aware of the benefits of oats as a healthy meal option especially for breakfast and I'm always on the look out for savory options we can have for breakfast.  Also hate to see any food going to waste and leftover chicken (especially from a curry) is usually the easiest to re-use since it's already got some flavorful taste from the curry.

Instructions:

• Heat oil in a wok, add the onions and garlic and toss around till it starts to brown but still crisp
• Add the shredded chicken and stir for few minutes 
• In a seperate pan add the oats and salt to the hot water and cook for a couple of minutes.
