Healthy Family Friendly Chicken Stir Fry Recipes

Steps:

• Place the chicken breast in the freezer until firm enough to thinly slice, about 20 minutes. Using a sharp or serrated knife, thinly slice the chicken 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a medium bowl and drizzle in 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce. Let sit for 10 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon of the cornstarch and mix well. Set aside in a cool place for 20 minutes.
• Whisk the remaining 2 teaspoons cornstarch with 2 teaspoons water in a small bowl; set aside.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a wok or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil starts to shimmer, add the chicken slices in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, until they just turn opaque, about 45 seconds. Flip and cook, undisturbed, until almost entirely opaque, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Remove to a bowl.
• Add the ginger and garlic to the wok. Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is slightly golden brown, about 30 seconds. Add the broccoli and toss to coat; cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and carrot; toss to combine. Add the Shaoxing wine and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Add the chicken stock, white pepper if using, chicken and the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
• Mix the cornstarch mixture in the bowl until well combined then add to the wok. Stir until everything is nicely coated, reduce the heat to medium low and cover with a lid. Cook until the sauce has thickened slightly and the chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Drizzle with the sesame oil. Toss until everything is well combined and transfer to a serving platter. Enjoy warm with steamed rice on the side.

Steps:

• Cook the rice following pack instructions, then drain. Heat the oil in a non-stick wok over a high heat and fry the ginger and red onions for 2 mins. Add the broccoli stem, carrots and chilli, if using, and cook for 1 min.
• Tip in the chicken and cumin, stir-fry briefly, then add the broccoli florets and 3 tbsp water. Cover and leave to steam for 3-4 mins, or until the broccoli florets are just tender and the chicken is cooked through.
• Meanwhile, mix the peanut butter with the tamari and vinegar. Stir the sauce into the veg and chicken, then serve over the cooked rice.

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into 2 inch cubes. Toss them into a ziplock (or generic -- lol!) bag with the soy sauce. Set the bag in the fridge while you chop your veggies.
• Cook the rice according to the directions on the package.
• Chop broccoli into bite size pieces (larger if you want to watch your family work for their meal!). Slice the onion into rather thick slices. Cut bell pepper into 1 inch cubes. (Tired yet?). Slice the carrotsand drain the mushrooms -- phew!
• Heat the olive oil in your wok and toss in the chicken. Cook until just a little pink is left. Throw in the onions and cook until the meat is done. Put the garlic, broccoli, peppers, and carrots, in the wok and cover for 4-5 minutes.
• The mushrooms go in last for just a couple of minutes. Put some rice and the stir fry on the plate and devour with any sauces you'd like to add (teriyaki and soy sauce are my family's choices).
• Nudge the person beside you and motion for them to go clean up your mess. :D.
