Step-by-Step Instructions for Seafood Fried Rice
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp and crab with soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, ginger, lemon juice, and white pepper. Allow to marinate for 10-15 minutes.
- Finely chop all vegetables: carrots, red bell pepper, green onions, onions, and minced garlic.
- Preheat a large wok on high heat until it starts to smoke. Add vegetable or peanut oil and swirl to coat.
- Add the marinated shrimp and crab to the hot wok, stirring for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp turn pink. Remove and keep warm.
- In the same hot wok, toss in the minced garlic, ginger, and chopped onions. Stir-fry for 30 seconds.
- Add diced carrots, green peas, and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until just tender.
- Push the stir-fried vegetables to one side. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble until soft curds form, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add the cold, day-old jasmine rice to the wok. Break apart any clumps as you stir vigorously with the eggs and vegetables.
- Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil over the rice mixture. Stir until everything is combined.
- Return the sautéed shrimp and crab to the wok, tossing everything together on high heat for 1-2 minutes.
- Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped green onions, sesame seeds, or chili flakes. Serve hot.
