Special Fried Rice Dish (Printable Version)

A quick, colorful fried rice combining chicken, shrimp, veggies, and savory soy and sesame notes.

# Everything You’ll Need:

→ Rice and Proteins

01 - 3 cups cooked long grain rice, chilled
02 - 3.5 oz cooked chicken, diced
03 - 5.3 oz peeled shrimp
04 - 2 large eggs, whisked

→ Vegetables

05 - ½ cup green peas
06 - 1 medium carrot, diced
07 - ½ medium onion, diced
08 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
09 - 2 to 3 spring onions, sliced

→ Seasonings and Oils

10 - 2 to 3 tablespoons cooking oil
11 - 3 tablespoons soy sauce
12 - 1 teaspoon chicken powder
13 - 1 teaspoon sesame oil

# Steps to Cook:

01 - Gather all ingredients and ensure the cooked rice is cold to avoid clumping.
02 - Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add whisked eggs and scramble until fully cooked. Remove eggs from the pan and set aside.
03 - Add another tablespoon of oil to the pan. Sauté diced onions and minced garlic until fragrant. Stir in diced carrots and green peas, cooking for 2 minutes until vegetables soften slightly.
04 - Incorporate diced chicken and shrimp into the pan. Cook for approximately 3 minutes, until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
05 - Add the chilled rice to the pan along with soy sauce, chicken powder, sesame oil, and sliced spring onions. Gently fold the mixture to combine, taking care not to break the rice grains.
06 - Return the scrambled eggs to the wok. Stir all ingredients together and cook until thoroughly heated, about 1 to 2 minutes.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Using chilled rice from the previous day helps to achieve a better texture and prevents sogginess.
