Description

A flavorful and savory Japanese-inspired dish made with succulent hibachi-style shrimp, stir-fried rice, vegetables, and soy-based seasoning.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 4 cups cooked jasmine rice (preferably day-old)
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil. Add chopped onions and garlic; sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add peas and carrots; cook until tender, about 3 minutes.
  5. Push vegetables to the side and pour in the beaten eggs. Scramble and cook until set.
  6. Add cooked rice to the skillet and mix everything together.
  7. Drizzle with sesame oil, soy sauce, and oyster sauce (if using). Stir well to combine.
  8. Add cooked shrimp back to the skillet and toss everything together.
  9. Stir in butter and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  10. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.

Notes

  • Day-old rice works best to prevent the dish from becoming mushy.
  • You can substitute shrimp with chicken or tofu for variation.
  • Add chili flakes or sriracha for a spicy kick.
