Instructions

In a small bowl, marinate the shrimp and chicken pieces with half of soy sauce. Let them marinate for about 15-20 minutes. 8 ounces medium/small shrimp, 8 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast, 4 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Hoisin sauce
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and chicken pieces, and cook until they are fully cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove them from the skillet and set aside. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic, diced onion, and diced carrot. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened. 2 cloves garlic, 1 small yellow onion, 1 carrot

Add the remaining soy sauce and Hoisin Sauce and stir until the color is uniform. 3 cups cold cooked long grain white rice, 1/2 cup frozen peas

Notes

The rice for this recipe can be made in advance, up to one day. It is best when it’s cooled.
You can use any size shrimp you would like, I used a medium size, deveined, peeled and tails removed. Once cooked, they shrink even more.

You can adjust the amount of soy sauce and Hoisin sauce you would like to use, adding more if desired for more flavor.
If you would like to add some heat to this rice, you can add some chili crisp as a topping and mix together, it’s very delicious.
