Ingredients
  

Simple Stir Fry Sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp fresh grated ginger 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp minced garlic 2 cloves
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar packed
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 cup chicken broth
Quick & Easy Stir Fry
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast cut to bite sized pieces (or 1 pound any meat or seafood)
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 6-8 cups assorted stir fry vegetables cut to bite sized pieces
  • chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired, for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a medium size bowl, whisk together Simple Stir Fry Sauce Ingredients and set aside or refrigerate for later.
  2. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil over medium high heat in a wok or large skillet.
  3. Season chicken with salt and pepper and add to skillet. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Reduce heat to medium and add remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet.
  5. Add stir fry veggies and cook, stirring occasionally, just until veggies are crisp tender, about 5 minutes.
  6. Add chicken and any accumulated juices back into the skillet and stir.
  7. Whisk stir fry sauce so it is well blended then pour over the contents of the skillet. Stir gently until everything is evenly coated.
  8. Heat to a boil and allow to cook for at least 3 minutes, stirring occasionally to allow the corn starch to thicken the sauce.
  9. Serve immediately. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy!
