Rice, Sheet Pan Fried

Sheet pan fried rice is a simplified, oven-baked take on traditional fried rice, offering a hands-off approach with minimal cleanup. The key to this method is using a large, rimmed sheet pan and a hot oven to achieve crispy rice edges, similar to the texture developed in a wok.
The original fried rice dish has a long history, originating in China during the Sui Dynasty (589–618 AD) as a practical way to use up leftover rice and reduce food waste
