Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick and Easy Shrimp Fried Rice.
Step 1
Begin by warming a generous splash of sesame oil and olive oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once the oils shimmer, introduce the shrimp, allowing them to sizzle for about three minutes until they transform into a vibrant pink and opaque delight, flipping them halfway through for even cooking.
Step 3
When perfectly cooked, use a slotted spoon to lift the shrimp out and set them aside, keeping the flavorful oils in the skillet.
Step 4
Next, toss in the frozen peas, carrots, and corn, stirring occasionally for around two minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Step 5
Then, add minced garlic and let it mingle for an additional minute, stirring frequently to release its aromatic essence.
Step 6
Now, create a little space in the skillet by pushing the veggies to one side and pour in the beaten eggs on the other.
Step 7
Scramble the eggs gently, stirring as needed, for about three to four minutes until they are fully cooked and fluffy.
Step 8
Once the eggs are ready, fold in the cooked shrimp, fluffy rice, and sliced green onions.
Step 9
Drizzle the mixture with soy sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 10
Give everything a good mix and let it cook for another two minutes, ensuring the shrimp are warmed through and the flavors meld beautifully.
Step 11
Enjoy your vibrant shrimp fried rice, a dish that brings a taste of the sea and garden to your table!.
