Skinny Garlic Fried Rice


Description

Skinny Garlic Fried Rice! A super easy, quick meal packed with brown rice, carrots, and garlic. Customize with any veggies you’d like!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, cold brown rice
  • 3 tablespoons oil, divided
  • 1/2 head green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 large carrot, shredded
  • (also any other vegetables that you want)
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, grated or minced
  • 1 1-inch piece ginger, grated or minced

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet. Saute the onion, garlic, and ginger until soft and fragrant.
  2. Add another 1 tablespoon oil to the pan and add the vegetables. Saute until tender-crisp. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Add the rice and 1 tablespoon oil (if needed). Stir fry until heated through and/or lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with lime (or calamansi, if in the Philippines) and soy sauce.

Notes

I doubled the veggie amount and still loved it! It just depends on how much rice you want in with the whole thing.

Additional add-ins: red pepper, edamame, scrambled or fried egg, tofu, chicken, shrimp, broccoli, and fresh herbs.
