A Chicken Stir Fry Favorite



Recommended Posts

I love easy meals that are crowd pleasers. Here's my daughter's favorite.

Boneless skinless chicken breasts. (I snip them into bit sized pieces with kitchen sheers straight into the pan out of the package..super quick and I don't have a raw chicken cutting board to bleach afterward. You can clip any gross parts back into the package and throw it away without raw chicken juice loose in your kitchen)

Brown the chicken breasts bites in olive oil. Season with Montreal Steak Seasoning Original (I know...it's chicken...but trust me, you'll love this)

Chop up one large green pepper, add to stir fry

Chop up one medium sweet onion, add to stir fry

Chop 8 ounces of fresh mushrooms. add to stir fry

Chop one small zucchini 6 inches by 1 inch long....cut in half lengthwise and cut into slices.

Chop one small yellow squash...same size as zucchini...cut in half lengthwise and cut into slices.

Add zuchinni and squash to stir fry

Add more Montreal Steak Seasonings to the veggies.

Before I start making this, I start some brown rice in the rice cooker. I serve it over about a quarter cup of cooked brown rice. Rice is optional, but I like it better with a little rice.

Super simple and my family loves this one.

You can also cut everything up, and put it in a storage container to cook that evening....or throw in a cooler to take with you camping or to your brother in law's barbecue, so there's a healthy option. Throw a cast Iron skillet on the fire, and you're in business. Easy Peasy. Have also had good luck putting this in tin foil pouches and throwing them right on the fire.

Thanks, sounds delicious. How many pounds of chicken breast to the veggies listed? I'll need to make multiples and want to get my proportions right. Thanks!

I make some stir fry that is very similar, just adding Water chestnuts because I love them and substituting riced cauliflower for the brown rice. Also add some gluten free soy sauce mixed with sesame oil. This is SOOO good and satisfying.

I am a fan of cooking fish in foil pocket with veges -- so easy!! I always have the big bag of frozen stir fry veges from costco, 'cause I'm lazy!:P

About a pound for the veggies listed. Feeds four people, easily. If you've got a big crowd, double it up:)

We have a chest freezer nearly full of frozen veggies because we still feed 6 adults most night at my house. Not sure I can count myself right now. 2 broccoli florets is a big veggie night for me.

Double-Triple, you know the Baby Dragon s and Big Dragon better than I do. At least the recipe,isn't full of simple carbs and fats, and it does sound GOOD.🍝

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
