My shrimp fried rice recipe is so delicious and filled with mouthwatering flavors! The shrimp, along with the veggies, is an insane combination, and it’s as easy as 123.
I remember going to Trader Joe’s and picking up the frozen ones. You know, the ones that come in the plastic packaging? I later started making this shrimp and fried rice recipe at home. The ingredients are really simple and I bet you have them in your pantry.
