GINGER CHICKEN ASPARAGUS STIR FRY



Ginger Chicken Asparagus Stir Fry image

This is a delicious stir-fry recipe and a really quick and easy dinner. Although the original recipe calls for asparagus, I have used fresh green beans (cut into 1-inch pieces) in place of the asparagus. The amounts for this recipe serves really only about 3 people, however all ingredients can easily be doubled to serve more. This is delicious!

GINGER VEGGIE STIR-FRY



Ginger Veggie Stir-Fry image

I just whipped this up one day when I felt like a stir-fry but did not have all the ingredients called for in some of the stir-fry recipes on this site. I used certain veggies I had on hand, but any seasonal veggies may be used. It has a mild ginger flavor that can be enhanced according to taste, and is filling yet light on the tummy! Tofu may be added. Serve over a bed of steamed jasmine rice.

SIMPLE SPICY ASPARAGUS IN A WOK



Simple Spicy Asparagus in a Wok image

Asparagus doesn't have to be treated as a delicate, fragile thing, napped only with butter or creamy sauces, or served plain with olive oil and salt. That's fine for the first week or two of the season, but then it's time to dial up the interest factor and add some spice. Asparagus actually stands up quite well to aggressive flavors. A quick toss in a hot wok with garlic, ginger and chiles doesn't overwhelm it at all, at least if you don't overcook the spears. Instead, the vegetable's sweetness becomes accentuated by contrast.

Categories     easy, quick, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds asparagus, medium- or pencil-size
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 small dried red peppers
Salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon Chinese chile paste
1 teaspoon grated garlic
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 jalapeño or serrano chile, finely chopped
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro
3 green onions, slivered
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Snap off and discard bottoms of asparagus, then cut into 2-inch pieces (halve thicker pieces lengthwise first).
  • Set wok over high heat and add vegetable oil. Add dried peppers and let sizzle, then add asparagus, tossing well to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for a minute or so, then add chile paste, garlic, ginger, orange zest and jalapeño. Continue cooking over high heat for a minute, maybe less, until asparagus is cooked but still firm and bright green. (It will continue cooking off the heat.)
  • Mound asparagus on a serving platter and drizzle with sesame oil. Sprinkle cilantro, green onion and sesame seeds over the top.

CORN AND CELERY STIR-FRY



Corn and Celery Stir-Fry image

Corn kernels stir-fried with pine nuts is a northern Chinese dish that shows off the versatility of fresh, sweet corn. While frozen kernels would work in a pinch, this dish is best made with corn at its peak; stir-frying at high heat for just a few minutes locks in the summer sweetness and ensures that every kernel stays plump and juicy. Similarly, flash-fried celery becomes highly perfumed while retaining its crunch. Pine nuts deliver pops of buttery nuttiness, but you could also use cashews or peanuts in their place. Eat alone as a light meal or with rice.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon neutral oil, such as canola or grapeseed
1 (1-inch) piece ginger, peeled and finely chopped (about 1 tablespoon)
1 garlic clove, peeled and finely chopped
4 scallions, white and green parts separated and cut into 1-inch pieces
4 cups corn kernels (from 4 to 6 corn cobs)
2 celery stalks, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
1/4 teaspoon white or black pepper
1/2 cup pine nuts (or coarsely chopped cashews or peanuts)
1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
2 teaspoons sesame oil
White or brown rice (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat a large 12-inch skillet or wok on medium-high. When it's hot, add the neutral oil, ginger, garlic and white parts of the scallions. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Add the corn, celery, salt and white pepper, and stir-fry for 1½ to 2 minutes, until the corn starts to soften.
  • Add the pine nuts, soy sauce or tamari and sesame oil, and stir-fry for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the corn is tender but still has a fresh, crisp bite. Add the scallion greens and toss for 30 seconds. Remove from heat and serve hot or at room temperature, with rice (if desired).
