PENNE PASTA STIR-FRY (ASIAN-STYLE)



Penne Pasta Stir-Fry (Asian-Style) image

I got this from www.diabetes.org when I was looking for new recipes to fix for my grandmother. My grandmother is diabetic, so I always visit these sites. This is easy, Asian style. I had never sauteed or stir-fried anything, but this turned out well. Just make sure not to overcook the vegetables as I did, or else it will stick to the pan. I did not use green pea. I made my own variation of vegetables; okra, carrots, green beans, red and green bell peppers. I also added a mushroom, and I used its water to substitute chicken broth. Mushroom broth is really good in soups!! Also, use sesame oil if you want it more oriental style.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose the Right Pasta: Penne is a great choice for this dish, but you can also use other short pasta shapes such as fusilli, rotini, or rigatoni.
  • Cook the Pasta Al Dente: This means cooking the pasta until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. This will help it hold its shape and texture in the dish.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your dish will taste. Look for fresh, flavorful vegetables, and high-quality chicken.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook it until it is just cooked through, but still tender and juicy.
  • Use a Flavorful Sauce: The sauce is what really brings this dish together. Make sure to use a sauce that is flavorful and has a good balance of sweet, sour, and savory flavors.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs can add a pop of color and flavor to the dish. Try garnishing it with basil, cilantro, or parsley.

Conclusion:

Asian chicken penne is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and flavorful weeknight meal.
