Tips for the Best Shrimp Fried Rice
- Use Day-Old Rice: For the best texture, use day-old rice that has been refrigerated. Freshly cooked rice tends to be too moist and can make the dish mushy.
- Protein Variations: Feel free to substitute shrimp with chicken, beef, or tofu based on your preference.
- Vegetable Add-Ins: Customize the fried rice with any vegetables you have on hand—bell peppers, broccoli, or corn work well too.
- Spice It Up: Add a splash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for extra heat.
Storing
- In the fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop.
- In the freezer: You can freeze Shrimp Fried Rice for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
Serving Suggestions
Shrimp Fried Rice is perfect on its own but can also be served alongside a fresh salad or spring rolls for a complete meal. Pair it with a light soup or a refreshing drink like iced tea or lemonade.
