Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked white rice
- 1 cup crab meat
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free tamari sauce
- 2 large eggs
- 4 stalks scallions
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 cup carrots
- 0.5 cup peas
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the ingredients: finely chop the garlic and slice the scallions, separating the white parts from the green parts.
Beat the eggs in a small bowl and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beaten eggs and scramble until fully cooked. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and the white parts of the scallions, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chopped carrots and peas to the skillet, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Increase the heat to high, and add the cooked rice to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the vegetables.
Pour the gluten-free tamari sauce and broth over the rice mixture. Stir continuously for 2 minutes to ensure everything is well-coated and mixed.
Add back the scrambled eggs and the crab meat to the skillet. Stir gently to combine, ensuring the crab meat is heated through.
Drizzle the sesame oil over the fried rice and mix well.
Season the fried rice with salt and black pepper to taste.
Remove from heat and garnish with the green parts of the scallions.
Serve hot and enjoy your Gluten-Free Crab Fried Rice!
