TIPS FOR CHICKEN AND VEGGIE STIR-FRY

  • For the best stir-fry texture, cook the chicken and vegetables over high heat to get a nice char while keeping the veggies crisp.
  • Chop all vegetables and have them ready before starting, as stir-frying is a quick cooking process.
  • Add vegetables like snap peas, zucchini, or mushrooms for more variety.

VARIATIONS

  • Spicy Version: Add a pinch of chilli flakes or drizzle in some sriracha for a spicy kick.
  • Vegan Option: Substitute the chicken with tofu or tempeh and swap the soy sauce for a low-sodium version if desired.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Make this gluten-free dish tamari instead of soy sauce.

PREPPING AND STORAGE GUIDE FOR CHICKEN AND VEGGIE STIR-FRY

  • Fridge: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Freezing: Avoid freezing; the vegetables and hummus don’t freeze well.
