This quick and easy Steak Fried Rice recipe delivers restaurant-style flavor in just 20 minutes. Tender marinated steak, fluffy eggs, crispy rice, and fresh green onions come together in one skillet for a satisfying dinner that’s perfect for busy weeknights.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (plus more for cooking)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice wine
  • 1/2 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 large eggs, whisked
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 spring onions, white and green parts separated
  • 2 cups cold cooked rice

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, mix sliced flank steak with garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice wine, brown sugar, and cornstarch. Cover and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Cook the Eggs: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add whisked eggs, scramble, cook through, and remove from the pan. Set aside.
  3. Sear the Steak: Add more oil to the hot pan. Add the marinated steak in a single layer. Cook for 1.5 to 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  4. Sauté the Veggies: In the same pan, add more oil if needed. Sauté diced onion and white parts of the spring onions for 1 minute.
  5. Add the Rice: Add cold rice to the pan. Mix with the onions and cook for 1 minute. Add soy sauce and stir-fry another minute.
  6. Combine Everything: Add cooked steak and scrambled eggs back to the pan. Stir-fry everything together for 1–2 minutes.
  7. Finish with Freshness: Add green parts of spring onions. Stir-fry for 30 seconds and serve hot.

Notes

Use day-old rice for best texture. Avoid crowding the pan when searing steak—work in batches if necessary. Add a dash of sesame oil or a squeeze of lime for a flavor boost.
