No Fuss No Fry Baked Fried Rice Recipes

SHEET PAN FRIED RICE

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.

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
Toss together the rice, white and light green parts of the sliced scallions, carrots, peas, garlic, ginger, vegetable oil, soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil in a large bowl until the rice is completely coated. Spread on a sheet pan and bake until the rice begins to toast on the outer edges, about 15 minutes. Toss the rice on the sheet pan using a metal spatula, scraping up any stuck-on pieces. Drizzle the eggs over the rice and nestle in the shrimp. Continue baking until the shrimp and eggs are cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes more. Top with the sesame seeds and reserved dark green scallions and divide among 4 plates. Serve with sriracha on the side.

Ingredients

4 cups cooked rice (preferably leftover and slightly dry)
5 scallions, white and dark green parts separated, thinly sliced
2 large carrots, peeled and grated using the large holes on a box grater
3/4 cup frozen peas, thawed
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons seasoned rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
3 large eggs, beaten to blend
3/4 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed
Toasted sesame seeds and sriracha, for serving

BAKED "FRIED" RICE

If you don't have cold leftover rice around, this easy oven method will produce something very similar to the classic fried rice, with the perfect texture every time. Just like rice pilaf, the grains of rice get coated in fat before absorbing the cooking liquid, ensuring plump, tender, separate grains with no sticky clumps. Just adjust cooking time if using a different kind of rice or pan size. Garnish with green onions and serve with a runny poached egg on top if desired.

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Place rice in a large baking dish. Drizzle in canola and sesame oils; toss to coat rice completely. Add garlic, green onions, bell peppers, carrots, peas, and ham. Season with salt. Stir until well combined.

Increase oven temperature to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Return to the oven until rice is browned and crusted, about 10 minutes.
