Chicken Stir Fry

Maybe you’ve noticed I’ve been doing lots of stir fry lately. That’s due to the fact that I don’t like to throw away food, so I end up making these dishes to avoid that and I end up using whatever’s about to go bad to save it. In this case, we had cabbage, which I’ve enjoyed plenty in my stir fry dishes.

Here’s another with chicken:

SERVINGS: 3

INGREDIENTS: Cut all veggies into thin strips.

1 Zucchini
1/3 Cabbage
1/3 Onion
1 Carrot
1 Bunch of green onions
1 8oz. Water chestnuts
Bean sprouts (I used about 1/3 of a bag)
Nuts (I had a mix of peanuts, pecans, cashes, and walnuts)
Oil (I used grape seed oil but Sesame oil would do great)
2 Cloves or garlic minced
Chicken strips (cut into small squares)
Teriyaki or Soy sauce (I used a teriyaki marinade/sauce)
Any other spices you desire


DIRECTIONS:

Marinade chicken once cut up with teriyaki sauce, half a lime, spices. Put aside.
Cut up all veggies into thin strips.
In  a large pan or wok, heat up oil and brown garlic. Grill chicken and keep it moist. Once it’s done, put aside.
In the same pan, throw all the veggies EXCEPT the zucchini. Mix well and cook until they are tender but still crisp. Add zucchini, cook for 5 minutes. Add chicken and mix well.

Done.

This would also be yummy with mushrooms, a variety but we didn’t have any :)

I served it with white rice and a glass of red wine. Enjoy.
