STEP 1: MARINATE THE CHICKEN AND SHRIMP

STEP 3: STIR FRY THE VEGETABLES
  1. In the same skillet, add the bell pepper, broccoli, and carrot. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp. Add minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
STEP 4: COMBINE AND SERVE
  1. Return the cooked chicken and shrimp to the skillet. Toss everything together and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for another 2 minutes to heat through.
