For the Stir Fry Sauce:

2 teaspoons sesame oil

1 teaspoon Sriracha

 

For the Fried Rice:

2 cups premade white rice

1 small white onion, diced

4 garlic cloves, minced

½ inch piece ginger, minced

1 Fresno chile, seeded and chopped

1 pineapple, chopped

½ bunch cilantro, chopped

½ bunch green onions, thinly sliced

Gorton’s® Butterfly Shrimp, cooked according to packaging instructions until 145°F or higher (remove tails and chop ½ cup, reserve the rest for serving/plating) or Gorton’s® Popcorn Shrimp cooked according to packaging instructions until 145°F of higher (chop ½ cup, reserve the rest for serving/plating).

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl mix together the stir fry sauce ingredients.

Step 2

Cook the Gorton’s® Butterfly Shrimp or Gorton’s® Popcorn Shrimp according to packaging instructions, to an internal temperature of 145°F or higher.

Step 3

Heat a wok, cast iron skillet or dutch oven on high heat. Add cooking oil. When the pan is smoking hot add the onion, garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the rice and stir fry while breaking apart any clumps of rice. Add the pineapple, chopped Gorton’s® Butterfly Shrimp (or Gorton’s® Popcorn Shrimp), and Fresno and continue to fry, mixing constantly to prevent burning.

Step 5

Add the stir fry sauce and mix until fully coated and the rice begins to brown on the edges.
