Steps
1
In a large bowl, combine shrimp, cornstarch, water, soy sauce, chicken bouillon, sugar, and baking soda. Mix well and transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for 20-30 minutes.
2
To a large nonstick skillet* over high heat, add canola oil. Once hot, add the shrimp to the skillet. Spread the shrimp into an even layer and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side. Avoid overcooking to prevent a rubbery texture. Transfer the cooked shrimp to a bowl and tent it to keep warm.
3
In a small bowl, mix water, oyster sauce, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
4
To the same skillet over medium heat, add oil. Once hot, add onions and carrots. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until softened. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
5
Using a spatula, push the mixture over to one side of the skillet. In the empty space, add the beaten eggs and cook until large curds form and the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist.
6
Add the cooked and cooled rice, using your spatula to break up any clumps.
7
Pour in the prepared sauce, peas, sesame oil, and shrimp. Toss to evenly coat. Continue to cook until everything is heated through.
8
Garnish with green onions and serve warm.
