Instructions

  1. Whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Marinate lamb chops for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Sear lamb chops in a hot skillet or grill pan for 3–4 minutes per side. If using honey, glaze during the final minute. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  3. In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil and cook shrimp until pink, about 2–3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  4. Sauté onion and carrot in the same pan. Push to the side, add eggs and scramble. Add rice, soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), sesame oil, and shrimp. Stir and cook until slightly toasted.
  5. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, garlic powder, paprika or cayenne, sugar, rice vinegar or lemon juice, and sriracha. Add water to thin if needed. Chill for 10 minutes.
  6. Serve fried rice on plates, top with lamb chops, and drizzle or serve the spicy yum yum sauce on the side. Garnish with green onions.

Notes

  • Use day-old rice to avoid mushy fried rice.
  • Marinate lamb in advance for best flavor.
  • Adjust spice level of sauce to taste.
  • Substitute lamb with chicken, steak, or tofu.
  • Store leftovers separately for best freshness.
