Chicken & Shrimp

We eat alot of shrimp and chicken, so I'm always looking for new ways to fix them.
This recipe combines the two in a nice simple and pretty quick dish that can be made in one pot (less mess - always a plus!). I like to serve it with basmati rice, lightly seasoned with rice chicken broth and either some cumin or a few cruch garlic cloves (ok, so it's two pots, but still not too much mess). It's also pretty good with this simmered white beans recipe.
