Ingredients

30 ml sesame oil

30 ml olive oil

450 g uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined

240 ml frozen peas and carrots

120 ml frozen corn

2 cloves garlic, finely minced (or more to taste)

3 large eggs, lightly beaten

800 g cooked rice

45 ml thinly sliced green onions

45 ml low-sodium soy sauce (or more to taste)

2.5 ml salt (or to taste)

2.5 ml freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)

Directions

Step 1

In a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat, heat sesame oil and olive oil. Add shrimp and cook until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, about 3 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 2

Using a slotted spoon, remove shrimp from the skillet, leaving the oils and cooking juices in the skillet. Place shrimp on a plate and set aside.

Step 3

Add peas, carrots, and corn to the skillet and cook, stirring intermittently, until vegetables begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir for 1 minute. Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet, pour the beaten eggs into the other side, and cook to scramble, stirring as necessary, for 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the cooked shrimp, rice, and green onions into the skillet. Drizzle evenly with soy sauce, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Cook until the shrimp is reheated through, about 2 minutes.
