Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn pink and are fully cooked. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the minced garlic and diced carrot, cooking for 2-3 minutes until the carrots start to soften.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs into the empty space. Scramble the eggs until they are fully cooked, then mix them with the vegetables.
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a spatula to combine it with the vegetables and eggs.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, stirring to incorporate evenly.
Drizzle the coconut aminos, fish sauce, and sesame oil over the rice. Season with salt and pepper, then stir-fry everything together for 2-3 minutes to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Add the frozen peas and chopped green onions to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until the peas are heated through and the green onions are slightly wilted.
Remove the skillet from heat and serve the fried rice hot. Enjoy your soy-free vegetable and shrimp fried rice!
