Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and fully cooked, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.
2
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
3
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a spatula. Stir-fry the rice with the onion and garlic for about 5 minutes, until the rice is heated through and starting to brown.
4
Add the cooked shrimp back into the skillet, along with the soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir-fry everything together for about 2-3 minutes, until the shrimp is fully coated with the sauce.
5
Transfer the shrimp fried rice to a serving platter or individual plates. Garnish with green onions and serve immediately.
