Another restaurant go to of mines is this beautiful rice plate served with meats and veggies. The chicken is nicely seasoned with Chinese BBQ and the shrimps and eggs are seasoned to bring the right amount of flavor. No meal is balanced without veggies so this dish is packed with cucumbers, lettuce and tomatoes- yum! I’m not going to lie to you, this isn’t a “simple” dish but it is worth it!
The Chinese BBQ seasoning that I use is made by NOH Food of Hawaii. I can always find this in my local oriental market but if you don’t have close access to one, ordering online for shipping works too!
I also like to use Sweet Fish Sauce as the last step of this plate. I only drizzle it over the meats to finish off my dish which I feel adds a finishing touch.
If you enjoyed this dish, make sure you try the Rice Vermicelli Salad and the Cambodian Shaking Beef.

2 cups of cooked jasmine rice
3 large eggs
1 1/4 lbs of chicken breasts
1/2 lb of shrimps, peeled and deveined
3 stalks of green onions, chopped
Lettuce
Cucumbers, sliced
Tomatoes, sliced
- Seasonings for shrimps:
1/2 tsp of sugar
1/2 tsp of MSG
1/4 tsp of garlic powder
1/4 tsp of parsley flakes
1/4 tsp of paprika
1/4 tsp of olive oil
Sprinkle of black pepper
- Seasonings for chicken:
Directions
- Start with seasoning the chicken. Follow instructions on packet, no additional seasoning required. Mix well and set aside to marinate.
- Next, season the shrimps with olive oil, sugar, MSG, garlic powder, parsley flakes, paprika and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.
- Prep the veggies- chop green onions, cut off stem end of lettuce, slice tomatoes and cucumbers. Then set aside in the fridge for later use.
- Preheat griddle to 300 degrees, spraying with nonstick oil. Add chicken and cook for 5 mins on each side, flipping the chicken a few times until thoroughly cooked.
- Halfway through cooking the chicken, spray cooking oil onto the side of the griddle not being utilized. Then add the eggs to cook for a few mins per side. Before flipping the egg, sprinkle fried garlic and drizzle soy sauce.
- Spray unoccupied area of griddle with nonstick oil then add shrimps. Cook for a few mins, stirring around then remove promptly.
- Once all the meats are cooked, the plates can be made. Start with patting in a circular motion a scoop of rice onto the middle of the plate. Then creatively add the meats and veggies around the rice (using it as the focal point). I like to drizzle my meats with a tad bit of sweet fish sauce for added flavor. Enjoy!
