  • 1 Cup Shrimps Peeled And Deveined
  • Chicken Breast Prepared as above
  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Crushed and diced
  • 1 Cup Frozen Mixed Vegetables
  • 1 Cup Snow Peas Sliced
  • 1 Tablespoon Light Soy Sauce
  • 1 Teaspoon Dark Soy Sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 4 Cups Cooked Rice Cooled
  • 1/2 teaspoon White Pepper Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese Cooking Wine Shao Shing WIne
  • 1 Cup Spring Greens Thinly Sliced

Instructions

Velveting The Chicken

  • Slice the chicken breast thinly against the grain.
  • Add to a bowl and mix in cornstarch, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
  • Mix well, and keep aside

Cook the Chicken:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
  • Add the diced chicken and stir-fry until it’s cooked through and golden brown, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.

Cook the Shrimp:

  • In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed, and add the shrimp.
  • Cook until the shrimp turns pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set it aside with the chicken.

Scramble the Eggs:

  • Pour the beaten eggs into the wok.
  • Let the eggs set slightly, then scramble them and set aside with the chicken and prawns.

Stir Fry the Vegetables:

  • In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
  • Add the minced garlic and diced white part of spring onion. Stir-fry until the onion becomes translucent.
  • Add the frozen vegetables and snow peas, and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

Add Rice and Seasonings:

  • Add the cooked rice to the pan, breaking up any clumps as you stir-fry.
  • Pour in the soy sauces, sugar, salt and white pepper powder. Stir everything together so the rice is evenly coated with the sauces.

Combine Everything:

  • Add the cooked chicken and shrimp back into the pan.
  • Stir everything together until well mixed and heated through.
  • Add Shao Shing Wine along the side of the wok and mix well with fried rice.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with additional soy sauce, salt, or pepper if needed.
  • Garnish with sliced spring greens and serve.
