Ingredients

2 tablespoons Vegetable oil for cooking
1 lb Leftover sirloin or ribeye steak thinly sliced
3 cups Cooked and chilled rice best if made a day ahead
2 cups Mixed vegetables carrots, peas, corn, and diced bell peppers
3 Green onions chopped
3 cloves Garlic minced
2 Eggs beaten
Salt and pepper to taste

Fried Rice Sauce

3 tablespoons Soy sauce
1 tablespoon Oyster sauce or fish sauce
1 teaspoon Sesame oil
1/2 tablespoon Brown sugar optional but recommended

Instructions

1. Prep Ingredients: Ensure all your ingredients are chopped, sliced, and ready to go. Having everything prepared in advance will make the cooking process smooth.
2. Cook the Steak: Heat a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sear the sliced steak for 1-2 minutes per side until heated through. Remove the steak from the pan and set it aside.
3. Cook Vegetables: In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed. Stir-fry the minced garlic and mixed vegetables until they are tender-crisp.
4. Add Rice: Add the chilled cooked rice to the pan. Break up any clumps and stir-fry with the vegetables until well combined.
5. Push Rice to the Side: Push the rice and vegetables to one side of the pan, creating an empty space. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty space and scramble them until cooked through.
6. Combine Ingredients: Once the eggs are cooked, mix them with the rice and vegetables.
7. Add Soy Sauce and Oyster Sauce: Mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and brown sugar in a bowl. Then drizzle the sauce over the rice mixture. Stir well to combine.
8. Add Steak and Green Onions: Add the cooked steak slices and chopped green onions to the pan. Stir everything together until the steak is evenly distributed and the green onions are mixed in.
9. Season and Serve: Taste the fried rice and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Continue to stir-fry for a few more minutes until everything is heated through.
10. Serve Hot: Transfer the steak fried rice to a serving dish and serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

If you are using raw steak, be sure to cook it for 2-3 minutes prior to adding it to the fried rice mixture.

You can use freshly made rice, but it may have a "stickier" consistency.
