Stir Fry Chicken and Vegetables – a super easy chicken meal that takes only less than 30 minutes to cook and seconds to devour; coated in a savory and lightly smoky sauce with amazingly vibrant vegetables. Truly a wonderful pleasure gobbling it down with warm rice.

Stir-fry meals are my favorite takeouts. Back when I was working at a restaurant, I would regularly come home with take out meal coz they’re super fast to order and taste sooo wonderful. But ever since I started creating homemade stir-fry recipes starting with this Beef Broccoli Stir Fry  (which is as good as the restaurant take outs), I thought  why should I order if I can make it at home pretty easily.

That slightly smoky flavor of meat, vibrant veggies coated in a savory sauce easily wins my heart. And above all, you can throw any veggies you have and it’s all made in one pan, y’all! I simply adore stir-fry! It’s the best meal to prepare to clean up your fridge.

And so I feel obliged to do this Stir-Fry Chicken at home since I have remaining chicken breast cutlets sitting right in my fridge. No chicken breast? You can always sub it with your favorite chicken cut. but if you want the healthier one, always use a skinless chicken breast.

Stir frying doesn’t involve complicated cooking method or special equipment (although a wok is highly recommended by big chefs). The most basic thing you need to know in stir frying is that you need to work with a very high amount of heat at a short period of time. Thus, the smoky flavor.

You can also add a little heat to this savory sauce for a little surprise. And most of the ingredients here are pretty simple, so you can always prepare this for your family anytime you want. Another thing you need to know is that Stir Fry Chicken always and always will be best served with rice.

Now go grab a bowl of this! Happy eating!
