Chicken Stir Fry Recipe - In Ten Minutes

Pan Fried Chicken


Chicken Stir Fry is quick and easy to make and you can use whatever veggies you happen to have in the fridge or pantry.

It's probably best to use a wok or large frying pan to make this stir fry recipe, but you could get away with using a large pan if that's what you have.

This recipe will serve around 4 people and will take less than ten minutes to prepare.

Chicken Stir Fry Recipe - Ingredients

Oil for frying (I use olive oil)
1 Onion - peeled and sliced
2 or 3 Carrots - peeled and finely sliced
1 large chicken breast - cut into small pieces
1 Clove of Garlic - crushed
1 Capsicum - any colour - thinly sliced
1 fresh corn cob - kernels removed (or use frozen)
Heaped teaspoon ready crushed ginger (or use fresh)
2 or 3 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce (or use hot chilli if you prefer)
Quarter cup (approx 80 ml) soy sauce
Packet of ready to use noodles (or use dried) - enough for 4 people

Chicken Stir Fry Recipe - Method

Heat the oil in the wok/pan
Gently fry the onion and carrot for a minute or two
Add the chicken pieces and gently fry for a few more minutes
Add the garlic, capsicum and corn and stir for another minute or two, making sure the chicken is cooked all the way through
Add the ginger, sweet chilli sauce and soy sauce and stir through
Finally, add the noodles and stir until heated through (see Handy Hints below if using dried noodles)
Serve immediately

Serving Suggestions

I like to serve at the table using large Chinese style bowls and chop sticks
The wok/pan keeps the stir fry nice and hot and people can help themselves
Have extra soy sauce and sweet chilli at the table, so people can add extra if they wish

Handy Hints

As mentioned earlier, you can use a whole range of veggies
String beans, broccoli (stems and florets), peas, snow peas and broad beans are all good additions
If you are using dried noodles, you will need to put them in boiling water to separate them, then drain them before adding to the wok/pan
I like to put the ready to use noodles in boiling water too. Drain them just before adding to the wok/pan
This separates the noodles and makes them nice and hot when you add them to the chicken and veggies

So, there you have it, Chicken Stir Fry Recipe in Ten Minutes.
