Shrimp and Marinade

Method

Marinate the Shrimp

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine minced garlic, soy sauce, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.

Prepare Fried Rice

  1. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the remaining vegetable oil. Add diced onion and carrot, sautéing for about 3-4 minutes until they are soft.

  3. 5

    Add Rice and Peas

    Add the cooked rice and green peas to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, allowing the rice to heat through.

  4. 6

    Scramble the Eggs

    Push the rice and vegetables to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty side and scramble them until fully cooked. Mix the scrambled eggs into the rice.

  5. 7

    Combine and Season

    Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet. Add sesame oil, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in chopped green onions. Serve hot and enjoy your Shrimp Fried!
