Chicken Stir Fry Recipe

I haven’t given you guys a chicken recipe yet, so I figure it’s about time to do something a bit different. This is one of my favorite go to dinners. Keep in mind this is the easy version. Seasonings are always to taste because really, who actually measures that out? This cooks better in a wok but a frying pan will work, too. Do not use a lid.




Chicken Stir Fry

1 Chicken Breast
2 Cups Frozen Vegetables (I like to use mixes and blends, so I don’t have to chop my own)
2 Cups Cooked Rice (I have a rice cooker and typically make my rice before I start cooking)
1 Large Egg
½ Yellow Onion
Minced garlic (This can be found in the seasonings or in the produce section or you can mince your own)
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder
Pepper
Soy Sauce
Vegetable Oil or Peanut Oil (You can use pretty much any cooking oil as long as you get it hot!)


Put about two tablespoons of oil into your pan and let it heat up while you cut your chicken into small cubes. You should also slice your onion into long strips and mince your garlic.  By the time this is done your oil should be plenty hot.

Season your chicken with onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and soy sauce (some people like to marinade their chicken before they cook it but with soy I recommend only a couple hours as opposed to overnight since it is such a strong condiment).

Put your chicken, onion, and garlic into the oil and cook until chicken is fully cooked. Remove it from the oil and set it aside in a bowl.

Make sure you still have oil in the pan, you might need to add another tablespoon of it. Then add the vegetables. Cook with light seasonings and set aside.

Check your oil again, keep in mind rice soaks up everything. Make sure oil is hot before adding in cooked rice. Drizzle the rice with soy sauce but be careful not to add too much. Cook the rice and sauce together until it starts to turn a little brown.

Make a hole in the rice large enough to crack an egg into and scramble it. When the egg is cooked mix it with the rice and add the vegetables and meat to it. Cook it all together until the rice gets a little browner. Serve hot.
