👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Cook brown rice: Place the brown rice in a large bowl with clean water and wash three times. Gently swirl and rub the grains in between your fingers to dislodge any dirt and debris. Drain, then repeat using fresh water.
2. 2Prep green onions: Dice just the green parts of the green onions.
3. 3Prep shrimp: Peel and devein (if needed) the shrimp.
4. 4Prep chicken: Debone and remove the skim from the chicken drumsticks, if needed (Skip if using boneless cut). Use a cleaver or a piece of paper towel to pull off the skin. Cut through lengthwise to expose the bone, then slice along the bone to detach the meat. Cut off the bottom of the bone and use it to peel the meat off the top of the bone. Slice through to separate the longer bone, then cut off the smaller bone.
5. 5Prep cooked rice: After rice cooker clicks and the rice is “done,” add the corn and reserved water. Start the rice cooker again.
6. 6Stir fry proteins: Heat the wok on high.
7. 7Stir fry rice: Add salt to the eggs.
