Ingredients:
1/2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 lb steak, thinly sliced
3 cups cooked rice (day-old preferred)
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped
1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 green onions, chopped
Preparation:
Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced steak, seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Step 2: In the same skillet, cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and fully cooked. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
Step 3: Add 2 tbsp of sesame oil to the skillet. When hot, sauté the garlic and onion for about 3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Step 4: Add the peas and carrots, stirring occasionally for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender and warmed through.
Step 5: Push the vegetables aside to make room for the eggs. Pour in the beaten eggs, scrambling for 2-3 minutes until fully cooked.
Step 6: Add the day-old cooked rice, tossing with the vegetables and eggs. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, to break up any clumps and make the rice slightly crispy.
Step 7: Return the steak and shrimp to the skillet. Stir gently to combine.
Step 8: Drizzle 2 tbsp soy sauce over the fried rice, stirring everything together. Cook for 2-3 more minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Step 9: Garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh, vibrant finish. Enjoy your savory Shrimp & Steak Fried Rice, perfect for a restaurant-style meal at home!
