Transfer to a wide, shallow bowl or plate.Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons. Heat the oil in the same skillet. Add the rice, stir until it is covered with oil, and put it in the pan (but do not press it down). Let the rice cook for 2 minutes, then stir to combine. Let the rice cool for another 1 minute, then press against the edges of the pan. Add the eggs to the center of the pan and mix to make an omelette. Break the eggs into small pieces and toss with the rice.Pour soy sauce over the rice, add the chicken and mix well. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow it to warm up. Add the cabbage mixture and half the green onions and continue cooking, stirring, until the rice is warmed through, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with the remaining green onions and serve.
