Instructions:

Prepare the Ingredients: Ensure all ingredients are prepped and ready to go before starting the cooking process. Cook the jasmine rice ahead of time and allow it to chill in the refrigerator to prevent it from becoming mushy when fried.
Marinate the Shrimp: In a small bowl, combine the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and a pinch of black pepper. Let the shrimp marinate for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Heat the Pan: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of cooking oil. Once the oil is hot, add the beaten eggs and scramble them until just set. Remove the scrambled eggs from the pan and set aside.
Cook the Shrimp: In the same pan, add another tablespoon of oil if needed, then add the marinated shrimp in a single layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
Sauté Aromatics and Vegetables: In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed, then add the minced garlic and diced onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and translucent. Add the mixed vegetables and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
Add Rice and Sauce: Increase the heat to high and add the chilled cooked rice to the pan. Use a spatula to break up any clumps and spread the rice evenly in the pan. Drizzle the remaining soy sauce and oyster sauce over the rice, then add the sesame oil for added flavor.
Stir-Fry Everything Together: Stir-fry the rice and vegetables together, ensuring that the sauce is evenly distributed. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the rice is heated through and starting to crisp up slightly.
Incorporate Shrimp and Eggs: Add the cooked shrimp and scrambled eggs back to the pan, stirring to combine with the rice and vegetables. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through and well combined.
Season and Serve: Taste the shrimp fried rice and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with sliced green onions for a pop of color and freshness.
Enjoy Your Culinary Masterpiece: Serve the shrimp fried rice hot as a delicious main course or side dish, alongside your favorite Asian-inspired accompaniments such as stir-fried vegetables, spring rolls, or dumplings.

Tips for Success:

Use day-old rice for the best texture and flavor, as freshly cooked rice can be too moist and sticky for frying.
Customize the recipe by adding additional ingredients such as diced ham, chopped pineapple, or sliced mushrooms for extra flavor and variety.
Don’t overcrowd the pan when cooking the shrimp or vegetables to ensure even cooking and optimal flavor development.
