Stir Fry Chicken, Sweet Peppers, and Green Beans Recipe
Ingredients:
- 300g chicken breast, thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 200g green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
- Chopped green onions, for garnish
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients: "Start by slicing the chicken and vegetables. Make sure your green beans are trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces for easy stir frying." - Chef Nisha
- Cook the Chicken: "Heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes until golden brown and cooked through." - Chef Nisha
- Stir Fry the Vegetables: "Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, add the remaining oil and sauté the garlic and ginger for 1 minute, until fragrant." - Chef Nisha
- Combine Chicken and Vegetables: "Add the cooked chicken back into the pan with the vegetables. Stir everything together so the flavors combine." - Chef Nisha
- Add the Sauce: "In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables and toss everything to coat evenly." - Chef Nisha
- Serve: "Once everything is well-coated in the sauce, remove the pan from the heat. Serve the stir fry in bowls, garnished with sesame seeds and chopped green onions." - Chef Nisha
Chef Priya: "Prepping the ingredients ahead of time makes the cooking process so much easier. Everything cooks quickly once you start!"
Chef Priya: "Be sure to season the chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper for extra flavor."
Chef Priya: "The garlic and ginger add so much depth to the stir fry! Then, toss in the sweet peppers and green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes, just until they’re tender-crisp."
Chef Priya: "The vegetables should still have a little crunch, which adds a great texture to the dish!"
Chef Priya: "The sauce will caramelize slightly on the chicken and vegetables, giving it that perfect stir fry flavor!"
Chef Priya: "The garnish adds an extra touch of flavor and color—so vibrant!"
Pro Tips for Perfect Stir Fry:
- Chef Priya: "For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of sriracha to the stir fry!"
- Chef Nisha: "If you like your stir fry a bit saucier, double the sauce ingredients for extra flavor!"
- Chef Priya: "You can also add other vegetables like snow peas, broccoli, or mushrooms depending on what you have on hand."
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve the stir fry with steamed rice or noodles to make it a more filling meal.
- Pair with a light soup or spring rolls to complete the meal.
