I was someone who liked to cook until I became a mother. That still hasn't changed. It has just changed what I cook more often than I'd like to.
Oriental Chicken Stir-Fry
Chicken Stir-fry:
4 chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces (May also use beef)
1 lg. sliced yellow onion
1 green or red bell pepper, chopped
1 c. broccoli, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
1-2 carrots, chopped
*may use any vegetable combination desired.
1-2 c Rice
Oriental Sauce:
3 Tbsp. cornstarch
1/3 c. water
3/4 c. sugar
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 Tbsp ketchup
1/3 c. rice vinegar
Place chicken and chopped onion in wok with 3-4 tbsp. of heated oil. Stir fry until chicken is thoroughly cooked and golden. Add bell pepper, celery, broccoli and carrots. Continue cooking until desired texture of vegetable is reached. I prefer my veggies a little on the crisp side and not limp. Start oriental sauce. Place ingredients in sauce pan and cook until sugar is dissolved and a clear brown texture. Add to chicken mixture and serve over rice.
