Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your stir-fry.
  • Cut your vegetables and chicken into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes. This will help tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
  • Use a hot wok or skillet. This will help sear the chicken and vegetables and prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the chicken and vegetables in batches. This will prevent them from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of frying.
  • Stir-fry the chicken and vegetables for only a few minutes, until they are just cooked through. Overcooking will make them tough and chewy.
  • Add the sauce to the wok or skillet and stir to coat the chicken and vegetables.
  • Serve the stir-fry immediately over rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

This easy chicken stir-fry with rice is a delicious and healthy meal that can be made in under 30 minutes. It's perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a lazy weekend lunch. With a few simple tips, you can make a stir-fry that is packed with flavor and sure to please everyone at the table.
