Simple ingredients, easy cleanup, and dinner on the table in about 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 each celery stalks, thinly sliced
  • 1 each carrot, finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
  • 3 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 4 each green onions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
  • 4 cup rice
  • 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 4 each large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup sweet peas
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions

  1. Pat the shrimp dry and season with ¾ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper.
  2. Heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until opaque and beginning to curl, about 2 minutes per side.
  4. Remove the shrimp to a plate.
  5. Reduce the heat to medium, add the celery and carrot to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until beginning to become tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Add the ginger, garlic and the white parts of the green onions and cook until beginning to soften, about 1 minute.
  7. Add the rice to the skillet. Drizzle with the soy sauce and toss.
  8. Spread in an even layer and cook, stirring occasionally, until hot throughout and the rice starts to brown and crisp on the bottom, 5 to 7 minutes.
  9. Add peas and toss with rice.
  10. Reduce the heat to medium-low and push the fried rice to the edges of the pan to make an open well in the center.
  11. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the well, then pour in the eggs and sprinkle with the remaining ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
  12. Let cook until the eggs just start to set around the edges, then stir the eggs in the center of the pan until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes.
  13. Stir the eggs into the rice.
  14. Return the shrimp to the pan
  15. Drizzle with sesame oil and toss to heat through.
