Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 boneless chicken breast
4 tablespoons soy sauce
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon vinegar
red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon oil, for stir-frying
1 onion, sliced
1 celery, sliced
2 tablespoons slivered gingerroot
1 tablespoon grated gingerroot
1 bell pepper, sliced
2 cups bok choy, chopped
3 cups bean sprouts

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into 1/2 inch cubes
  • Prepare marinating sauce and add to chicken cubes.
  • Sit in refrigerator for at least 2 hours
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok.
  • Drain chicken keeping the juice.
  • Stir fry the chicken for 4 minutes over high heat.
  • Push the chicken to the side and add onion, celery, bell pepper and ginger.
  • Add reserved marinating juice
  • Cook, stirring constantly for 5 minutes.
  • Add Bok choy; cook another 2 minutes,
  • Add the sprouts and stir-fry another 2 minutes.
  • Serve while sprouts are still crisp.
  • Cooking time does not include marinating time.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cuts of chicken: For a stir-fry, it's best to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. These cuts are lean and cook quickly, making them ideal for a stir-fry.
  • Slice the chicken thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Use a hot wok or large skillet: This will help to create a nice sear on the chicken and prevent it from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet: If you do, the chicken will steam instead of fry.
  • Add the vegetables in stages: This will help to prevent them from getting overcooked.
  • Use a high-quality ginger: Fresh ginger is best, but you can also use dried ginger powder if you don't have any fresh on hand.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is done cooking when it is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fry is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Chicken stir-fry is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. By following these tips, you can make a delicious and impressive stir-fry that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give chicken stir-fry a try!
