CHICKEN STIR-FRY

In my home, one of our go-to dishes for Chinese takeout is chicken and broccoli. It's so flavorful and never dry! The secret to the super tender meat is velveting, the technique of cooking marinated proteins briefly in hot oil. I wanted to replicate the same flavors and textures at home in a budget-friendly way. With just a few fresh vegetables, lots of pantry condiments and only one chicken breast, this recipe will serve four. If you have any leftovers or are meal planning, the velveting technique ensures that the chicken will remain succulent even when reheated.

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.

1 boneless, skinless chicken breast, about 12 ounces
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
One 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks
2 cloves garlic, chopped
8 ounces broccoli florets
4 ounces shiitake or button mushrooms, stemmed and sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 small carrot, peeled and cut into 3-inch-long matchsticks
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper, optional
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
3 cups steamed jasmine rice, for serving

CHICKEN WONTON TACOS

Light and tasty, these make a great appetizer or a quick and easy main dish! Kids love them! Finally a dish that makes use of ground chicken but not so far-fetched. I bake the wonton wrappers to save time and it eliminates most of the fat. Although time-consuming, you can fry wrappers in sesame or olive oil for the extra flaky shells, folded in a triangle for about 1 minute on each side. I loved the ones at Applebee's® and decided to attempt a home version. I was extremely pleased with the healthier version! Top tacos with cilantro, red onion, or sweet onion, if desired. Serve lime wedges on the side.

Stir-Fry Chicken Tacos image

Steps:

  • Stem and seed the bell peppers, green chilies, and jalapenos (be sure to use rubber gloves). Mince jalapenos. Cut bell and green chilies into thin slivers (I used a food processor).
  • Cut the chicken crosswise into thin slices about 3 inches long.
  • Place a skillet over med high heat until fairly hot, add the oil. Add the chicken,black pepper and stir-fry until the chicken is opaque throughout, 4 or 5 minutes. Remove chicken to a serving dish. Return the pan to the heat, add the garlic and cumin, stir-fry for a minute, being careful not to let the garlic burn. Add the bell peppers and chilies. Stir-fry until they begin to wilt 2-10 minutes, I prefer the longer cooking time. Return chicken to the pan; add cilantro and salt to taste. Stir to mix evenly and transfer to a serving dish.
  • Serve with warm tortillas. To assemble a taco, fill a tortilla with chicken mixture, squeeze a lime wedge over the filling, and add a bit of sour cream. Enjoy.
  • Note: To warm tortillas, stack them on top of each other and wrap tightly in aluminum foil. Heat for 10 to 12 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Or wrap loosely in waxed paper and microwave; a stack of 6 tortillas will take 45 to 60 seconds at full power.

2 red bell peppers
2 fresh green chilies (Anaheim)
2 fresh jalapeno chilies (1 oz prepared)
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 tablespoon olive oil (not in original recipe, but this is how I made it)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin (to taste)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
salt and pepper
12 flour tortillas, 6-7 inch warm
lime wedges and sour cream (to garnish)
