In a Chinese restaurant, this is always consistent with the menu or buffet. I will never choose any other meal over this, NO WAY! This recipe is so quick and works perfectly with overnight or day-old boiled rice. There's something about the overnight sweetness I can't explain. I am not saying that you cannot use same-day boiled rice. That will work just fine. Chinese fried rice is also the perfect meal prep idea.
And if you have some extra shrimp (and some more seafood) to put to use, I would highly recommend trying my seafood boil in a bag or shrimp scampi without wine recipes.
Recipe Ingredients and Variations.
- Shrimp: Already cooked or raw shrimp can be used. For the raw shrimp, wash it thoroughly, peel and devein it. Any type of shrimp works just fine, whether small, large, or jumbo.
- Eggs: One of the important ingredients and acts as protein. Must be scrambled and cooked well.
- Cooked Rice: Leftover rice is the best or overnight boiled rice, this is because it's grainy when cold and not mushy.
- Light and Dark Soy Sauce: I used low sodium for both, adding taste and flavor. If you don't have both, use either of them.
- Garlic: Adds a deep flavor and kick to this delicacy.
- Green Onions and Onions: Cook some and save some of the green onion for garnishing. Use both the green and white part of the green onion.
- Oil and Sesame oil: This is used to cook the shrimp and to fry the rice. Sesame oil adds a very good and inviting flavor to this dish.
Storage Tips:
This is best eaten immediately, but any leftovers can be stored in the;
- Fridge for 3-5 days in a sealed container.
- Freeze for up to 3 months, then thaw in the fridge then microwave for a few minutes.

What is chili crisp?
Crispy chilli can be found in the grocery store in the Asian section.

I am sorry, but I am lost on the chilli crisp. Do you have a brand name or substitution? I've looked at two stores and no luck
