Easy prawn fried rice healthy non greasy
- Replies 2
This is an easy, one-pan recipe that’s ready in 20 minutes and tastes better than takeout.
It’s healthier, not greasy, and you’re going to love it.
There’s garlic, ginger, green onions, sesame oil, and soy sauce for layers of flavor while peas, carrots, corn, and bits of egg add texture. It’s a perfect weeknight meal when you’re in a rush want a break from the usual chicken .
To save time if you don’t have leftover rice on hand or don’t want to cook a batch, use two pouches of ready-to-serve rice. Works like a charm! I don’t even bother thawing the frozen peas, carrots, and corn
Easy Better-Than-Takeout prawn Fried Rice
One-skillet, ready in 20 minutes, and you’ll never get takeout again!! Homemade tastes WAY BETTER!! Tons more flavor, not greasy, and loaded with tender prawns
Prep Time5minutes mins
Cook Time10minutes mins
Total Time15minutes mins
INGREDIENTS
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
• 1 pound medium-large fresh prawns cleaned (approximately 15-20 count shrimp)
• 1 cup frozen peas and diced carrots blend I don’t thaw and use straight from the freezer
• 1/2 cup corn I use frozen straight from the freezer
• 2 to 3 garlic cloves finely minced or pressed
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 3 large eggs lightly beaten
• 4 cups cooked rice I use white, long-grain or brown may be substituted. To save time use two 8.8-ounce pouches cooked and ready-to-serve rice
• 2 to 3 green onions trimmed and sliced into thin rounds
• 3 to 4 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
• To a large non-stick frypan or wok, add the oils, prawn, and cook over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, flipping halfway through. Cooking time will vary based on size of prawn, don’t overcook. Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon (allow oils and cooking juices to remain in skillet) and place prawn on a plate; set aside.
• Add the peas, carrots, corn, and cook for about 2 minutes, or until vegetables begin to soften, stir intermittently.
• Add the garlic, ginger, and cook for 1 minute, stir intermittently.
• Push vegetables to one side of the skillet, add the eggs to the other side, and cook to scramble, stirring as necessary.
• Add the shrimp, rice, green onions, evenly drizzle with soy sauce, evenly season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until shrimp is reheated through. Recipe is best warm and fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Reheat gently as desired.
