CHILI PLUM STIR FRY CHICKEN



Chili Plum Stir Fry Chicken image

This is a combination of two recipes from taste.com.au that the DH and I combined to come up with something we both really like. The night we made it we had several dishes on the go and I was prepping for them as well so times are estimated to if you were only cooking this dish UPDATE - o'kay making this once again I have added other vegies tonight which were some julienned carrot, broccoli and cauliflower flowerettes and snow peas and served on top of some hokien noodles - just a variation. ANOTHER UPDATE - we tried this tonight Have now tried with beef, rump strips (possibly could be better to beat out and cut into strips though we think. depending on the quality of your rump) and added 3/4 teaspoons chinese five spice to step 2 but would suggest 1/2 teaspoon) but still thoroughly enjoyed and we are smacking our lips still 2 hours later.

I don't usually make many recipes from Cook's Illustrated because they require too many ingredients and are to expensive for my budget. This recipe is definitely going into my rotation. I left out the leafy greens and just served the chicken over rice.

  • Stir-fry the chicken and vegetables in batches. This will help to prevent them from overcrowding the pan and cooking evenly.
  • Add the sauce to the wok or skillet and bring it to a boil. Then, reduce the heat and simmer for a few minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • Serve the stir-fry over rice or noodles.

Conclusion:
