Provided by SaniaASK

Number Of Ingredients 23

FOR THE CHICKEN MARINADE
Boneless chicken 1 Pound, diced
Eggs 1 Medium, beaten
All purpose flour 1 Cup
Garlic powder/Crushed garlic 2 Teaspoon
Soy sauce 2 Teaspoon
Red chili powder 1⁄2 Teaspoon
Salt To Taste
FOR DEEP FRYING THE MARINATED CHICKEN
Oil As needed for deep frying
FOR THE GRAVY SAUCE
Honey 2 Teaspoon (Adjust as per your preference to sweetness)
White vinegar 2 Teaspoon
Soy sauce 2 Teaspoon
Chili flakes 1 Teaspoon
Cornflour 1 Tablespoon
REST OF THE INGREDIENTS FOR THE GARLIC CHICKEN
Sesame oil 1 Tablespoon
Green chilies 2 Medium, sliced
Crushed garlic 4 Teaspoon
Assorted vegetables 1 Cup (16 tbs), chopped (Mushrooms, broccoli and bell peppers recommended along with other vegetables of your choice)
Salt To Taste
Water

Steps:

  • GETTING READY 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients for the chicken marinade with the boneless chicken pieces. Mix well so that the chicken pieces are completely coated with the mixture. 2. Heat oil in a pan and deep fry the coated pieces of chicken. Make sure the pieces are fully cooked. Once done, remove them onto a paper towel to drain the excess oil. Set this aside. 3. In a bowl, mix together the ingredients to prepare the sauce for the gravy. Mix well and set aside. MAKING 4. Heat a pan with sesame oil. Add green chilies. Saute on a medium-low heat for a little while until the chilies change color. Then, add the garlic and saute for another minute. 5. Once the garlic turns light brown, add the vegetables. Stir fry on a medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. 6. Add salt and the fried chicken to the vegetables. 7. Add the prepared honey mixture sauce and water. Stir and allow it to come to a boil. Once it starts to boil, stir well to avoid lumps. SERVING 8. Serve with hot steamed rice.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: To ensure your stir-fry comes together quickly and easily, prepare all of your ingredients in advance, including slicing the chicken, chopping the vegetables, and measuring out the sauce ingredients. This will make the cooking process much smoother.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: A large skillet or wok will allow you to cook the chicken and vegetables in a single layer, which is essential for even cooking. If you don't have a large enough skillet or wok, you can cook the chicken and vegetables in batches.
  • Heat the skillet or wok over high heat: This will help to sear the chicken and vegetables and create a nice caramelization.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or wok: If you overcrowd the skillet or wok, the chicken and vegetables will steam instead of fry, resulting in a soggy dish. Cook the chicken and vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Stir-fry the chicken and vegetables until they are cooked through: The chicken should be cooked through and no longer pink in the center. The vegetables should be tender but still have a slight crunch.
  • Add the sauce and cook until it has thickened: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken and vegetables. If the sauce is too thin, cook it for a few minutes longer until it has thickened.
  • Serve immediately: Garlic chicken stir-fry is best served immediately after it is cooked. It can be served over rice, noodles, or quinoa.

Conclusion:

Garlic chicken stir-fry is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it can be easily customized to your liking. Whether you like your stir-fry spicy, sweet, or savory, there is a recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give garlic chicken stir-fry a try.
