Ingredients
Scale
Oils
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Main Ingredients
- 4 cups cooked rice, cooled
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup frozen peas and diced carrots blend
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
Instructions
- Preheat the griddle: Preheat your Blackstone griddle over medium-high heat to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for frying.
- Add oils: Pour in the sesame oil and vegetable oil onto the hot griddle surface to coat it evenly and add flavor to the dish.
- Scramble eggs: Pour the beaten eggs onto one side of the griddle and scramble them until just cooked. Once done, push the eggs to the side to make room for other ingredients.
- Sauté vegetables: Add the frozen peas and diced carrots blend to the other side of the griddle and sauté for 2–3 minutes until thoroughly heated.
- Cook rice: Add the cooled cooked rice to the griddle and spread it out evenly. Let it sit for a short time to develop a slight crisp texture on the bottom.
- Combine ingredients: Mix the scrambled eggs, sautéed vegetables, and crisped rice together thoroughly on the griddle.
- Season the fried rice: Drizzle the soy sauce evenly over the rice mixture and season it with salt and black pepper.
- Stir-fry: Stir-fry the combined ingredients for another 3–4 minutes to ensure everything is fully incorporated, heated through, and flavorful.
- Serve: Serve the hot Blackstone fried rice immediately as a side dish or as a base for grilled chicken, shrimp, or beef.
Notes
- Use day-old rice for best texture as it prevents the fried rice from becoming mushy.
- You can customize the vegetable blend by adding bell peppers, green onions, or corn for extra flavor and color.
- Sriracha or chili flakes can be added for a spicy kick.
- Ensure the griddle is properly preheated to avoid sticking and to achieve crispiness.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
