Baked Fried Brown Rice
Baked fried brown rice made with sriracha, pineapple, cashews, and edamame.
Ingredients
- 4 c. brown rice cold, leftover
- 1 green onion sliced into ½-inch pieces, bunch
- 1 c. pineapple chunks I used fresh, but I'm sure canned would be fine
- 1 c. edamame thawed, frozen
- ½ c. cashew raw, pieces
- 2 tbsp. coconut oil melted (peanut, vegetable, or canola oil would work too)
- 3 tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 tbsp. sriracha more for spicier fried rice, less if you like it milder
- cooking spray or oil mister
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Combine rice, green onions, pineapple, edamame, and cashews in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together oil, soy sauce, and sriracha. Pour oil mixture over rice mixture and stir until well-combined.
- Spray a rimmed baking sheet with oil or cooking spray. Pour rice onto sheet in an even layer. Bake for 45-60 minutes, stirring about every 20 minutes, or until rice is dry and just beginning to get crispy. Serve with additional soy sauce and sriracha, if desired.
Notes
- The rice I used for this was 2 days old.
