Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Cooked jasmine rice
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 1 medium Carrot, finely diced
- 3 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast or shrimp (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Neutral oil (e.g., vegetable oil)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil until well combined. Set aside.
Spread the cooked jasmine rice onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Break up any clumps of rice with a fork to ensure a uniform texture.
Scatter the diced carrots, frozen peas, and half of the sliced green onions over the rice.
Drizzle the soy-sauce mixture evenly over the rice and vegetables. Use a spatula to gently toss the ingredients, ensuring everything is lightly coated.
Create a small well in the center of the rice mixture and crack the eggs into the well. Use a fork to scramble them slightly.
If adding cooked chicken or shrimp, scatter it evenly over the rice mixture at this point.
Sprinkle the minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper over the entire dish.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of neutral oil over the mixture and gently toss everything together until well combined.
Bake the rice in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and carefully stir the mixture to ensure even cooking.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the rice is slightly crispy and golden around the edges.
Remove the rice from the oven, garnish with the remaining green onions, and serve hot.
