Rinse the brown rice under cold water and cook it according to package instructions. Allow it to cool and preferably chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour or overnight to achieve the best texture for fried rice.
In a large pan or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken breast and cook until browned and cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside with the chicken.
Reduce the heat to medium and add sesame oil to the pan. Stir in the garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Crack the eggs directly into the pan, stirring them around until they are scrambled and fully cooked.
Add the cooked rice to the pan, stirring it thoroughly to mix with the eggs, garlic, and ginger.
Add in the green peas, diced carrots, and chopped green onions, and stir-fry for about 3 minutes until the vegetables are heated through and slightly tender.
Return the cooked chicken and shrimp to the pan. Pour the soy sauce over the mixture, stirring constantly to ensure even distribution of the flavor.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste, and continue to stir-fry for another minute until all ingredients are heated through and well combined.
Serve hot, garnished with additional green onions if desired.
