Fried Rice With Shrimp Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

   Start by gathering all the ingredients. Ensure the shrimp is peeled and deveined, and the rice is cooked and cooled, preferably from the day before to avoid sticking.

2. 2

   Cook the Shrimp

   In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté Garlic and Green Onions

   In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and chopped green onions, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Add Peas and Rice

   Stir in the frozen peas and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Then add the cooked rice, breaking up any clumps with a spatula. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

5. 5

   Season the Rice

   Pour in the soy sauce, and add salt and black pepper. Stir everything together to ensure the rice is evenly coated with the seasonings.

6. 6

   Incorporate Eggs

   Push the rice mixture to one side of the skillet. In the cleared area, pour in the beaten eggs. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then mix them into the rice.

7. 7

   Add Shrimp Back In

   Finally, add the cooked shrimp back into the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through.

8. 8

   Serve

   Remove from heat and serve the fried rice hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions if desired.
