Easy Salmon Fried Rice

Ingredients

• 8 oz salmon fillet
• 0.25 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 0.333 cup white onion (Diced)
• 0.333 cup green onions (Sliced)
• 1 tbsp garlic (Minced)
• 2 eggs
• 3 cups day-old rice
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp sugar

Steps

1. 1

   Season the salmon fillet on both sides with the salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon skin side down and sear for 2 minutes.

3. 3

   Flip the salmon and cook for another 2 minutes.

4. 4

   Reduce the heat to low. Peel off the crispy salmon skin and break the salmon into pieces in the skillet.

5. 5

   Add the diced white onion, sliced green onions, and minced garlic to the skillet with the salmon. Cook for about 1 minute.

6. 6

   Add the two eggs and scramble them with the salmon and aromatics until the eggs are scrambled.

7. 7

   Add the day-old rice, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Toss everything together so the rice, salmon, eggs, and sauce are evenly combined.

8. 8

   Increase the heat to high and cook for 1–2 minutes, tossing until the rice is hot and the ingredients are well combined.

Notes

The source specifies day-old rice but does not provide additional storage or reheating instructions. The source says to cook the rice and sauce together on high for 1–2 minutes.
