Easy stir fry recipe are always results of recipes simplified enough to come up with a delicious dish that is quick and simple to prepare. Ever since stir frying became popular throughout the globe, there are now so many simplified forms of recipes that were formerly introduced in print books or even in the net that were transformed into an ultimate easy recipe.
Say for example this chicken and broccoli stir fry recipe we are introducing in this article. We had some chicken breasts and broccoli leftovers in the refrigerator and we thought of creating a stir fry out of them. The procedure was very simple. We trim and slice about one pound of skinned and deboned chicken breasts into thin slices or bit sizes. Then heat oil on a non-stick pan on medium high heat and add the chicken cuts when it is hot. Stir frequently to evenly cook the chicken pieces. Then we combined two tablespoons of soy sauce, one half teaspoon ground ginger, and one half teaspoon of garlic powder in a small bowl. Mix them well and you have your sauce. When chicken is cooked through add the sauce mixture and continue frying till the chicken is tender for six to eight minutes. Then separate them into bite sizes with a wooden spoon.
While chicken is cooking, chop two stalks of celery, two medium carrots (peeled) and a medium sized opinion. Then prepare two cups of broccoli florets sliced in half without the stems. Then add the veggies to the pan and an eight ounces can of water chestnuts if you desire, but drain the liquid first. Stir and toss to cook for about five minutes more.
While the dish is cooking mix eight ounces of chicken broth with two to three tablespoons of cornstarch and stir until they dissolve well leaving no clumps. Add the cornstarch slurry to the pan and stir continuously until the sauce thickens and veggies are tender. Maybe five minutes for this recipe, but longer if you double the ingredients. Serve hot with steamed rice. EASY CHICKEN STIR FRY: This is an easy stir fry that only uses what you have on your pantry. It is healthy and does not use those special sauces anymore. The recipe can serve four persons.
