Chicken Vegetable Stir Fry

Chicken Veggie Stir Fry

 

This is a very simple, healthy dish. Plus you can substitute just about any vegetables you want. I make this both with and without chiles. If I’m serving some people who can take zero heat, I divide the dish in two and add chiles to one half at the very end.

Keys to this dish are: 1) cut veggies into about the same size so they cook at the same rate & start ingredients that take longer to cook first (such as carrots or uncooked chicken) 2) Put the fat in your wok and turn the heat to medium high. The oil should be very hot before you add any ingredients 3) Stir ingredients constantly.
