Place the bowl in a bamboo steamer in a WOK (or a deep pot if you don't have a WOK).

Sprinkle with 1/2 the green onions (scallions)

Repeat with the shrimp and shitakes, adding the rest of the green onion. Place on the second (top) rack in the steamer

Cover the steamer

Steam the over rapidly boiling water for 15 - 20 minutes, Watch that the water doesn''t completely evaporate. Add more water as needed.

If the shrimp are done before the chicken, remove from the steamer and keep covered until the chicken is done.
