Stir Fry the Vegetables. Add the broccoli, peas and chopped peppers. Cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften. You can cook longer if you need to. First, they’re quick and easy to make. I can whip together a stir fry and have it on the table in 30 minutes or less, and I’m a slow cook! Ask anyone. I take forever in the kitchen. Secondly, I can make it as spicy as I want! You already know I love my spicy foods, as do you, or else you probably wouldn’t be here. There are store bought packages and sauces you can grab, but I love making a nice homemade stir fry sauce with lots of seasonings for a big, bold flavor. Use only broccoli for a nice chicken and broccoli stir fry, a very popular combination. Add as much as you want! Veggies are good for you. The great thing about chicken stir fry is that it is very customizable and easy to adapt to your own flavor preferences. Here is my chicken stir fry recipe that you can use as a base. Feel free to change things up to suit your palate. Let’s talk about how we make chicken stir fry Mike’s way, shall we? Sauce and Simmer. Add the stir fry sauce and stir. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 3 minutes, stirring a bit, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are cooked to your liking. The stir fry sauce will thicken in the pan and coat the chicken and vegetables. Garnish and Serve. I like my chicken stir fry with either steamed white rice or stir fry noodles. Sprinkle on some spicy chili flakes, chopped fresh scallions (green onion), and some toasted cashews, either whole or crumbled. Boom! Done! Your chicken stir fry is ready to serve!
