Serving Size 4 Servings
Ingredients
- 1 (12-ounce) can Spam cut into ½ inch cubes
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 3 cups cooked long grain white rice chilled (day old is best)
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 3 large eggs lightly beaten
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
Instructions
- Heat 1/2 tablespoon of the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced Spam and cook until browned and crisp, stirring occasionally.
- Add the remaining avocado oil to the skillet, then add the chilled rice and garlic. Stir fry until the rice is heated through and lightly crisp.
- Add the frozen peas and carrots and cook until warmed through.
- Push the rice mixture to one side of the skillet and pour the eggs into the empty space. Let them set slightly, then gently scramble and stir to combine with the rice.
- Add the soy sauce and stir until evenly distributed.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sesame oil.
Notes
- 1-2 day-old chilled rice works best.
- Refrigerate: Store leftover Spam Fried Rice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Freeze: Let the fried rice cool completely, then store in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
- Reheat: Reheat in a skillet over medium heat with a small splash of water or oil, stirring until heated through. You can also microwave in short intervals, stirring between each.
