  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Rice

  • 2 cups day-old jasmine or long-grain rice

Vegetables

  • 1/2 cup chopped carrots
  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Proteins

  • 1 cup protein of choice (chicken, shrimp, tofu), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten

Seasonings and Oils

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil (vegetable or canola oil)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Ensure the rice is cooked and cooled (preferably day-old), vegetables are chopped into bite-sized pieces, and proteins are cut and ready to cook. This prep work ensures smooth and quick cooking on the griddle.
  2. Heat the Blackstone Griddle: Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to prevent sticking and for proper sautéing.
  3. Cook the Protein: Add your chosen protein to the hot griddle and cook until fully done and slightly browned. Remove and set aside to retain juices and flavor.
  4. Sauté Vegetables, Garlic, and Ginger: Add remaining oil if needed, then toss in the chopped carrots, peas, onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Cook until vegetables are tender-crisp and aromatic.
  5. Add Rice and Scrambled Eggs: Push the vegetables aside on the griddle, pour beaten eggs into the cleared space, scramble until fully cooked. Mix eggs together with vegetables, then add the rice and stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
  6. Season and Combine: Pour soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice mixture. Add the cooked protein back in and toss everything together on the griddle. Continue cooking for a few minutes until everything is heated through and coated evenly with seasoning.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped green onions on top and serve immediately for a fresh, flavorful finish.

Notes

  • Use day-old rice to maintain good texture and prevent mushiness.
  • Cook on high heat for authentic wok-char flavor and proper caramelization.
  • Avoid overcrowding the griddle; cook in batches if necessary to retain crispness.
  • Prepare all ingredients ahead of cooking for efficiency.
  • Adjust soy sauce quantity gradually to avoid oversalting.
