- Stir in cooked rice, green onions and soy sauce mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in egg and shrimp. Toss in the remainder of the green onions and combine thoroughly. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Absolutely use any leftover rice in this fried rice recipe!
- Swap out shrimp for chicken or tofu and feel free to toss in whatever veggies are in your fridge like shredded carrots, mushrooms, corn, or edamame.
- For extra crunchiness, once cooked, you can let it stand in the wok for an extra 30 seconds or so until desired cooking.
