Cook and shred the chicken - this is another good step to do the day before.

Heat your wok over medium heat. Add the diced bacon and cook through, stirring occasionally. Move the cooked bacon onto paper towels to drain.
3
In the same pan, sauté the shrimp until cooked. Remove and set aside.
4
Add the beaten eggs to the pan, season with salt & pepper, and cook through. Remove and set aside.
