4 cups cooked jasmine white rice day old
1 shallot minced
5 cloves garlic minced
4 green onions chopped whites and greens separated
1 cup frozen vegetables peas, carrots, corn, green beans, don’t need to be thawed
3 eggs scrambled

Marinate the shrimp. In a medium mixing bowl, add the shrimp, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and baking soda and mix until combined. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Mix the sauce. In a small mixing bowl, add soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, white pepper, chicken bouillon powder, sugar, and sesame oil. Mix until combined. Set aside.
Cook the shrimp. Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Cook the shrimp on both sides until pink about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Cook the vegetables. In the same wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat until hot. Saute the garlic, shallots, and whites of the green onion until lightly browned and fragrant. Then add the frozen vegetables and mix until combined, about 1 minute.
Cook the eggs. Push everything to the side and pour in the whisked eggs. Scramble the eggs until just done and then toss to combine.
Combine. Toss in the shrimp, rice, and sauce. Mix until combined and the rice is evenly coated with the sauce, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve. Garnish the shrimp fried rice with green parts of green onions and enjoy!
