Shrimp Fried Rice is a very simple recipe that tastes better than the Chinese take out restaurant in your neighborhood.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 12 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cold cooked rice
  • 3 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 12 oz. pkg. frozen cooked shrimp
  • 1 cup frozen baby peas
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3 Tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
  • dash white pepper

Preparation:

Make sure rice is cooked, then chilled. In colander, place shrimp and peas; run cold water over these ingredients until thawed. Drain well.

In heavy skillet or wok, heat olive oil and add shrimp and peas; stir-fry until food is hot. Add rice; stir-fry until hot.

Push food to sides of skillet or wok and pour beaten eggs in center. Scramble eggs, stirring frequently, then stir the eggs into the rest of the food until pieces are small. Add soy sauce and pepper, stir-fry for 1-2 minutes longer, then serve. Serves 4
