Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over high heat until smoking, about 1 minute.

  2. Step 2

    Add chicken, stirring constantly, until no pink remains and edges char slightly, 4–5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Push chicken to the side, add shrimp and mussels to the empty space, and cook without stirring for 2 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Toss everything together, add frozen vegetables, and stir-fry until shrimp turns opaque, about 2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Break up rice with your spoon, add it to the skillet, and stir constantly for 2 minutes to coat with oil.

  6. Step 6

    Drizzle soy sauce over the rice, toss for 30 seconds, then squeeze lime juice over top and serve immediately.
