Chicken Stir Fry with Vegetables, Carrot, Avocado, Tomato, and Chickpeas Recipe
Ingredients:
- 200g chicken breast, thinly sliced
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced
- 1 tomato, diced
- 1/2 cup chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped cilantro for garnish
- Chili flakes or fresh chili (optional, for heat)
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken: "Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken breast and cook for 5-6 minutes, until browned and cooked through." - Chef Nisha
- Cook the Vegetables: "Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside. In the same pan, add another tablespoon of oil and sauté the garlic for 1 minute. Then, add the carrot and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender." - Chef Nisha
- Add the Chickpeas and Tomato: "Add the chickpeas and diced tomato to the pan. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend together." - Chef Nisha
- Combine Chicken and Vegetables: "Add the cooked chicken back to the pan with the vegetables. Toss everything together, ensuring the chicken and vegetables are evenly mixed." - Chef Nisha
- Add the Sauce: "In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Pour the sauce over the stir fry and toss well to coat everything." - Chef Nisha
- Finish with Avocado and Serve: "Finally, remove the pan from heat and gently fold in the sliced avocado. Garnish with chopped cilantro and optional chili flakes for an extra kick!" - Chef Nisha
Chef Priya: "Season the chicken with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor. You can also add some garlic powder for extra flavor!"
Chef Priya: "The carrots add such a nice crunch! You can also add bell peppers or snap peas if you have them."
Chef Priya: "The chickpeas add a great texture and protein boost, making this stir fry even more filling!"
Chef Priya: "At this stage, the chicken will absorb all the flavors from the veggies and sauce!"
Chef Priya: "This sauce is simple but full of flavor! You can adjust the amount of soy sauce depending on how salty you like it."
Chef Priya: "This dish is packed with flavor, and the avocado adds a creamy element that complements the savory stir fry perfectly!"
Pro Tips for Perfect Chicken Stir Fry:
- Chef Priya: "Feel free to experiment with different vegetables like zucchini, mushrooms, or spinach!"
- Chef Nisha: "For extra crunch, you can top the stir fry with roasted nuts or seeds like sesame seeds or cashews."
- Chef Priya: "If you like a spicy kick, add fresh chili or chili paste when stir-frying the vegetables."
Serving Suggestions:
