Ingredients
- 2 cups Jasmine rice
- 4 cups Water
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 pound Sea scallops
- 0.25 cup Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Carrot, diced
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 4 Green onions, sliced
- 2 Eggs, beaten
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Cilantro, chopped (optional)
Directions
Step 1
1. Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to the package instructions using 4 cups of water. Once cooked, spread it out on a baking sheet to cool. This helps to prevent the rice from becoming mushy when frying.
Step 2
2. While the rice is cooling, prepare the seafood. Pat the shrimp and scallops dry with paper towels and set them aside.
Step 3
3. In a small bowl, combine the tamari and sesame oil. Set aside for later use.
Step 4
4. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and scallops in a single layer and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the seafood is opaque and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Step 5
5. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and ginger, and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 6
6. Add the diced carrot and cook for 2 minutes until slightly softened. Then, add the frozen peas and sliced green onions, and sauté for another 2 minutes.
Step 7
7. Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs into the other side. Stir occasionally to scramble the eggs as they cook, then mix them with the vegetables.
Step 8
8. Add the cooled rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps. Pour the tamari and sesame oil mixture over the rice, and toss everything to combine well. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors and heat through.
Step 9
9. Return the cooked shrimp and scallops to the skillet, and gently mix to combine. Season with the remaining salt and pepper, adjusting to taste.
Step 10
10. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your Homemade Gluten-Free Seafood Fried Rice!
