Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C). This step is crucial for achieving that crispy goodness in your Sheet Pan Fried Rice.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the cooked rice, chopped carrots, onion, celery, thawed corn, and minced garlic. Use a spatula to fold and combine the ingredients thoroughly.
  3. Transfer the combined ingredients onto a large, rimmed sheet pan, ensuring the rice mixture is spread evenly in a single layer.
  4. Place the sheet pan in your preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes. Stir the mixture gently about 10 minutes in.
  5. Once the 20 minutes are up, carefully remove the sheet pan from the oven, drizzle the lightly-beaten eggs over the rice, and return the pan to the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
  6. After the second baking time, give the rice a good stir, mixing in the cooked eggs thoroughly. Add soy sauce to taste.
  7. Finally, sprinkle the chopped green onions over your baked fried rice as a fresh garnish and serve warm.
