Shrimping Ain't Easy (Fried Rice Recipe)

So Mr. Crockpot chicken from my previous recipe makes a special guest appearance in my chicken and shrimp fried rice!
Yep that's right I managed to stretch a whole chicken into THREE meals for two. Talk about #QuarantineCooking at its finest.
Without further adieu let's slide right on into the recipe  (4 steps)

Step 1: Shrimp

Try not to eat them all up before you start your recipe lol

Fill a saucepan halfway with water and add shrimp, 2 tbsp of seafood boil, and a dallop of butter. 

Bring shrimp to a boil. Drain saucepan, cut shrimp in half, and set aside. 

Step 2: Scrambled Eggs
