Stir-Fried Chicken with Vegetables and Noodles
Posted By Stephen
A quick and easy but still tasty dinner this evening, it was mostly comprised of ingredients that we had bought last week with a similar idea in mind but had ended up going out instead.
Quick overview: Stir fry some sliced garlic, finely chopped / minced ginger and sliced chilli for a minute in vegetable oil in a hot wok. Add a thinly sliced chicken breast, then after a minute or two add halved baby corn and green beans. After another minute or so, add sliced red pepper and sliced spring onions. Add a healthy drizzle / splash / glug each of Thai fish sauce and soy sauce, plus a dash of chicken stock. Turn down the heat and put a lid on the wok until the vegetables have just cooked through and are still quite crunchy. Add some noodles (which you have cooked / soaked already!) and combine well with everything else. Sprinkle over some crushed peanuts and it’s ready to serve.

hmmm…rather healthy too! Like the addition of peanuts! xxx
Ooh, you can see the steam rising off it!
Mr F and I always argue about adding stock to stir-fries (I’m for, he against…) so we don’t tend to have them v often but I really fancy one now!
Alex´s last blog ..Chocolate brownies
Alex we didn’t used to add stock until we followed a recipe that included it and found that it created lovely sauce to soak into the rice.
I love that stir fries are quick and healthy. I have never used a stock in mine before but I think it’s a great idea.
I thought I’d look back and try to find the first time that we put stock into a stir fry – it might have been this one: http://dinnerdiary.org/2007/07/16/stir-fried-beef/
It also includes cornflour which gave a gloopy quality to the sauce reminiscent of some Chinese restaurants.
