Stir frys are quick and easy to make and this Chicken Stir Fry Recipe is no exception.

So, let’s get straight to it.  This recipe will serve approx 4 people.  And, by the way, tossing the veggies is optional!

Chicken Stir Fry Recipe – Ingredients

• Olive Oil
• One Onion – chopped
• Two carrots – chopped or sliced
• One or two chicken breasts – chopped into small bite sized pieces
• One red or green pepper (capsicum) – chopped or sliced
• Frozen corn – or fresh is you have it
• Approx 80 ml soy sauce
• 1 or 2 Tablespoons crushed ginger (from a jar or fresh is you have it)
• 2 or 3 Tablespoons sweet chili sauce (use hot chili if you prefer more heat – 1 or 2 teaspoons recommended, either from a jar or fresh)
• Ready to eat noodles (or dried noodles)

Chicken Stir Fry Recipe – Method

1. Cook onion and carrots in olive oil in a large fry pan or wok
2. While onion and carrots are cooking, add noodles to large pan of boiling water to ‘separate’.  (If  you’re using dried noodles, it will take a minute or two longer)
3. Drain noodles
4. Add chicken to onion/carrots and stir fry until just cooked through
5. Add capsicum and corn and cook for another minute or two
6. Add soy sauce, ginger and chili sauce and mix through
7. Add the drained noodles
8. Mix and serve

Serving Suggestions

• I like to serve directly from the fry pan/wok at the table
• Have extra soy sauce and sweet chili (or hot chili) on the table for those who want it
• Serve from bowls and use chop sticks

Variations

The sky’s the limit when it comes to stir fry variations.  Here are a few suggestions:-

• Try this chicken stir fry recipe with prawns instead of chicken
• Leave out the chicken and add more veggies
• Broccoli is delicious in stir fry – the chopped stems will need more cooking than the florets
• Add some spinach towards the end of cooking and heat through until just wilted
• Try string beans or snow peas (fresh or frozen)
• Frozen peas are quick and easy
• Serve with boiled rice instead of noodles

So there you have it, Chicken Stir Fry Recipe – another dinner in ten minutes.

Looking forward to your comments and suggestions.
