Hibachi Shrimp Fried Rice Recipe
Wednesday kicked off Lent, which for most Catholics out there means a strong helping of local church fish fries. When I get a little tired of battered fish though I turn to some of my other Lenten favorites like this Hibachi Shrimp Fried Rice Recipe.

I love hibachi grills or Japanese Steakhouses.
Not only do they usually put on a show, but the food is so delicious!

And really not all that difficult to make right from the comfort of your own home.
Just please leave the flinging of knives to the professionals!

The shrimp just needs a quick saute.
Feel free to use whatever protein source you enjoy. Scallops, lobster, chicken, salmon, tuna, or my favorite, beef steak.
Crack in a few eggs. Scramble and cook in the same skillet you just sautéed your shrimp (or other protein) in.

Toss in some cooked rice (I find that a day or two old works best), peas and carrot mix, with a little soy sauce and sesame oil.

Then voila!
You have a super quick meal that is perfect for any weeknight.
Serve as is, or add more flavor with an extra sprinkling of soy sauce, dash of sweet chili sauce, or of course, a hibachi staple, Yum Yum sauce!
