Tuesdays With Kris: Get Your Wok On!

It was time for a new Wok and now I can't stop.
Cooking stir fries with a little oil is a healthy and EASY way to get lean meats and vegetables into your diet.
One pot wonders!

Here is today's recipe:

Sweet & Spicy Chicken Stir Fry

Ingredients

4 tbsp Sherry Cooking Wine (reserve 2tbs for final sauce)

4 tbsp Soy Sauce (reserve 2tbs for final sauce)

2 tbs honey

1 tbsp Ginger Root, minced/grated

6 Garlic Cloves, minced 

red pepper flakes to taste

2 tsp Pure Sesame Oil (reserve 1tsp for final sauce)

2 chicken breasts, sliced thin

1 tsp Vegetable Oil/spray

2 cups broccoli

1 cup sliced zucchini

1 cup snap peas

4 scallions, chopped

Directions

In a bowl or ziplock bag, combine 2 tbsp sherry, 2 tbs soy sauce, 1 tsp Sesame Oil, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes . Add chicken and toss. Cover and let sit in fridge for an hour. Meanwhile whisk the remaining soy, sesame oil, sherry and honey in a bowl and set aside. In a large wok over med-high heat, add the vegetable oil. Add the chicken and brown on both sides, then set aside. Add vegetables to wok and stir fry for 4-5 min. Return chicken to pan. Pour the extra sauce into the wok and let chicken and veggies cook for another 4-5 minutes but be sure that the chicken is cooked and the veggies still have a crunch. Toss in scallions before serving.

I will be featuring a shrimp stir fry on my blog tomorrow as well.

Happy Wokking!
