shrimp fried rice

Seafood stir-fry staple

Shrimp fried rice is a dish of cooked rice stir-fried with shrimp, eggs, and vegetables, seasoned with soy sauce.

A staple of Chinese-American cuisine, it appears on virtually every takeout menu.

The phrase sometimes appears in the construction "I'll have the shrimp fried rice," a stock order so familiar it borders on cliché.
