How to make it
- In a bowl, combine the chicken, 4 1/2 tsp of the soy sauce, and Asian spice blend. Toss to coat and let sit for 10 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, combine the shrimp and water. Let sit for 15 minutes. Drain and roughly chop. In a large wok or sauté pan, heat the oil over high heat. Add the beans and shallow fry until wrinkled, stirring, about 2 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Remove all but 1 TBS of the oil and add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 10 seconds.
- Add the chicken and stirring constantly, cook until brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chopped shrimp, greens beans, cashews, hoisin, and last 3 tsp of soy sauce, sesame seeds, srirachi, sesame oil and red pepper flakes. Stir to coat, and cook for 1 minute.
- Remove from the heat and serve immediately, garnished with green onions.
