Chicken Stir Fry
🛒 What You’ll Need
- 1.5 lbs Chicken breast or thighs, sliced into thin strips 🍗
- 3 cups Mixed vegetables (broccoli florets, sliced carrots, snap peas, and corn) 🥦🥕🌽
- ½ cup Teriyaki sauce or a honey-soy stir fry glaze 🍯🏺
- 2 cups Cooked white or brown rice (for the base) 🍚
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil for frying 🍳
- Optional: Toasted sesame seeds or green onions for garnish! 🌱
👩🍳 Instructions
- Prep the Base: Cook your rice according to package directions and set aside. 🍚🌊✨
- Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tbsp of oil over high heat. Sauté the chicken strips until golden brown and cooked through. 🍗🍳🔥
- Vibrant Veggie Sauté: Remove the chicken and add another tbsp of oil. Toss in the broccoli, carrots, snap peas, and corn. Stir-fry for 5–7 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright. 🥦🥕🌽
- The Great Combine: Add the chicken back into the skillet with the vegetables. 🍗🤝🥦
- Glaze to Perfection: Pour your teriyaki or stir-fry sauce over the mixture. Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes until the sauce is thick, bubbly, and perfectly coating every piece! 🌪️🤤✨
- Assemble the Bowls: Layer a generous portion of rice in your bowls or meal prep containers. Top with a big scoop of the saucy chicken and veggie mix as seen in the photo! 🍱🥄💎
- Serve: Enjoy immediately while hot, or snap the lids on for a week of delicious, healthy lunches! 🍽️😋🧤✨
