🧂 Ingredients
This is meant to be a brief overview of this great recipe. For step-by-step instructions, and a full printable recipe card with ingredients and measurements, please scroll down to the teal box below.
- sirloin steak - I like to stock up when it's on sale and pop it into the freezer. You can also use leftover steak.
- fresh garlic and ginger - these aromatics add tons of flavor.
- rice - for best results, use day-old rice which will have less moisture.
- frozen mixed vegetables - my family likes a mix of corn, carrots, and green beans but you can also add mushrooms, peppers, peas, or broccoli.
- large eggs - be sure to beat them before adding to the pan. The eggs can be omitted if you prefer.
- Seasonings: salt and black pepper, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil. Note, sesame oil adds a nice nutty flavor but a little goes a long way!
🔪 Instructions
- In a large skillet, season the steak with salt and pepper, then brown.
- Remove the steak from the pan. Cook the onion, garlic, and ginger.
- Add the veggies and cook 3-4 minutes, then add the eggs to cook.
- Stir in the rice and steak along with the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Cook 2-3 minutes more
- Serve hot with green onions.

⭐ Ang's Tips
✔️ If you do not have oyster sauce, use fish sauce, hoisin sauce, or extra soy sauce instead.
✔️ If you like really crispy rice, grab a second skillet and add a little bit of oil and the cooked rice. Set the burner to medium high heat. Use a spatula to press the rice flat into the pan. Cook 4-5 minutes, then flip the rice to cook on the other side.
🍲 Storage
To Store: Leftover steak fried rice should be stored in an airtight container. (These are my favorite airtight containers.)
To Reheat: Microwave individual portions in 30 second intervals until heated throughout.
