SHEET PAN FRIED RICE



Sheet Pan Fried Rice image

Our restaurant favorite with crisp-tender veggie bites among salty fried rice, drizzled with a creamy Sriracha mayo. By cooking this on a sheet pan, the rice gets crispy all around the edges, which isn't so easy in a regular skillet. Plus, it makes for a fun presentation and a super easy clean up. Add cooked chicken or shrimp if desired.

SHEET PAN FRIED RICE



Sheet Pan Fried Rice image

Baking the rice on a sheet pan guarantees more of the crispy, crunchy bits that make fried rice the perfect food. For this recipe, the older and drier the rice the better. If you must start with freshly cooked grains, spread them out on a sheet pan to dry out in the refrigerator first.

SHEET-PAN FRIED RICE WITH VEGAN 'XO' SAUCE



Sheet-Pan Fried Rice With Vegan 'XO' Sauce image

While making fried rice the traditional way isn't hard, this sheet-pan version is an excellent alternative method: It uses the oven for the heavy lifting and produces the perfect amount of crisping. Fried rice is the ultimate adaptable dish, and here, frozen mixed vegetables - that bag of corn, carrots, peas and beans that home cooks should always keep in the freezer - create a colorful canvas for an XO-inspired vegan mushroom sauce that infuses the dish with umami. The sauce is a wonderful condiment in itself, so make a double batch to keep in the fridge for slathering over noodles or roasted vegetables. You could use mushrooms other than cremini for the sauce; fresh or dried shiitake work incredibly well. Add more eggs if you wish, too.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 heaping cups cold leftover rice (white or brown)
1 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal), plus more to taste
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 onion, finely diced
1/2 cup neutral oil, such as grapeseed or canola, plus more for drizzling
6 ounces cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
1 (1-inch) piece ginger, finely chopped
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
3/4 to 1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, to taste
1 (16-ounce) bag frozen mixed vegetables (do not thaw)
4 to 6 eggs
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Place a sheet pan on the middle oven rack and heat to 450 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, combine the rice with salt, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, sesame oil and half of the diced onion. Toss to combine well. Remove the sheet pan from the oven, and spread the rice out evenly. Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a medium saucepan on medium-high heat, add 1 to 2 tablespoons neutral oil and the remaining diced onion. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the onions start to soften, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 2 minutes more until translucent. Add the remaining 6 to 7 tablespoons neutral oil, along with the mushrooms, garlic, ginger, remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce, dark soy sauce and red-pepper flakes. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, until the mushrooms are completely soft. If the oil bubbles too much, reduce the heat to low.
  • After 15 minutes, remove the sheet pan from the oven, add the frozen mixed vegetables and toss with the rice to evenly distribute. Make 4 to 6 divots in the rice (depending on how many eggs you are using), drizzle a tiny bit of neutral oil into each divot to prevent sticking, and break an egg into each. Return to the oven for 6 to 10 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
  • To serve, spoon some of the sauce over the rice and top with scallions. If the rice needs more seasoning, add more sauce or season with salt.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: Day-old rice is best for fried rice, as it has less moisture and will fry up better. If using fresh rice, spread it out on a baking sheet and let it dry for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A well-seasoned wok or large skillet will help to prevent the rice from sticking. If you don't have a wok or skillet, you can use a large nonstick pan.
  • Cook the rice over high heat: High heat will help to create a nice crispy texture on the rice. Be sure to stir the rice constantly so that it cooks evenly.
  • Add the eggs early in the cooking process: This will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming rubbery.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the rice will not cook evenly. Cook the rice in batches if necessary.
  • Season the rice to taste: Add soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, or other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lime juice or a sprinkle of chili flakes for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Sheet-pan breakfast fried rice is a quick and easy way to make a delicious and healthy breakfast. It's a great way to use up leftover rice, and it's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying breakfast that the whole family will love.
