Chicken Stir Fry

February 05, 2017 / Eats

Stir Fry’s are one of my favorite meals to make because not only are they super yummy, they are a great way to clean out your fridge! I typically make them when I have a bunch of vegetables that need to be used up. The recipe below makes enough to feed 4 people, plus leftovers! I always cook with leftovers in mind so I don’t have to make another new meal the next day, because who has time to cook a brand new meal every single night? Not me.

If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw my Insta Story showing how I made Chicken Stir Fry for dinner the other night! That was a quick glimpse on how to make the delicious meal, but below I provided a detailed recipe for you all!

If you have any variations of Stir Fry that you absolutely love, share in the comments below! I am always on the hunt for new recipes and love to try out new things!

The ingredients listed below are what I used, but if you like a certain kind of veggie that is missing, feel free to add it in!

Seasonings and Other:

Rice (White or Brown, desired amount)
Rice Noodles (I made 1/2 a box)
Water Chestnuts (2 small cans)
Chicken Broth (1 reg can)
Soy Sauce
Chicken Bouillon Cube
Sugar
Ground Black Pepper
Vegetable Oil
Corn Starch

Ingredients:

Produce & Protein

Carrots (3 large, peeled ones)
Celery (3 stalks)
Broccoli (1-2 medium heads)
Snap Peas (desired amount)
Fresh Ginger (2 tablespoons)
Fresh Garlic (2-3 cloves)
Chicken (2 skinless, boneless breasts)

Directions:

Chop all of your veggies, ginger, and garlic. Set aside.
Start cooking rice and noodles. Set aside when done. (Will add into stir fry last)
While rice and noodles are cooking, cut up chicken into bite-sized cubes.
Place cut up chicken into a bowl, pour soy sauce (about 1 table spoon) into it as well as a little ground pepper and a small amount of sugar. Mix up and let sit for a few minutes.
While waiting, make sauce to pour into your Stir Fry towards the end. (Recipe at bottom)
Now, put a little vegetable oil in a large pan and cook your chicken. Season chicken with a little garlic and ginger while cooking.
Once chicken is fully cooked, remove from pan and set aside in a bowl.
Use same pan to stir-fry your vegetables and water chestnuts. Add remaining garlic and ginger to vegetables as well.
Continue stir-frying vegetables until they are done cooking but still crunchy.
Pour in sauce, add cooked noodles, and chicken. Slowly mix together. *Be careful not to mash your noodles!
Cook until heated through and sauce thickens.
Serve Stir Fry with rice on the side!
