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.🍝

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
