Janette's Jerk Monkfish Stir-Fry image

Provided by Food Network

Time 55m

Yield 4 generous servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup lime juice
3 tablespoons dry jerk seasoning mix
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated lime zest
1 jalapeno, seeded, and finely chopped
1 1/2 pounds monkfish fillet, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
5 teaspoons peanut oil
2 cups diced fresh pineapple (1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces)
1 cup snow peas
2 cups red bell pepper strips (1 1/2 by 1/2-inch pieces)
2 cups diced fresh mango (1/2 to 3/4-inch pieces)
1 cup carrot strips (1 1/2 by 1/4-inch pieces)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Serving suggestion: cooked wild rice

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the lime juice, jerk seasoning, vinegar, soy sauce, lime zest, and jalapeno. Add monkfish and turn to coat. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for 10 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pineapple and cook, shaking the pan, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Repeat with the snow peas, followed by the red peppers, mango and carrot (cook for 3 to 4 minutes), placing the ingredients in the bowl as they're done and adding another teaspoon of oil, if needed.
  • Remove the monkfish from the marinade and pat dry. Wipe out the skillet with paper towels, taking care as the pan is very hot. Heat the remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add the fish and cook, shaking the pan from time to time, until nicely browned and just cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Return the vegetable-fruit mixture to the pan with the fish and cook, stirring gently just to combine, until heated through. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve immediately over wild rice.

CHICKEN STIR-FRY



Chicken Stir-Fry image

In my home, one of our go-to dishes for Chinese takeout is chicken and broccoli. It's so flavorful and never dry! The secret to the super tender meat is velveting, the technique of cooking marinated proteins briefly in hot oil. I wanted to replicate the same flavors and textures at home in a budget-friendly way. With just a few fresh vegetables, lots of pantry condiments and only one chicken breast, this recipe will serve four. If you have any leftovers or are meal planning, the velveting technique ensures that the chicken will remain succulent even when reheated.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 boneless, skinless chicken breast, about 12 ounces
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
One 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks
2 cloves garlic, chopped
8 ounces broccoli florets
4 ounces shiitake or button mushrooms, stemmed and sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 small carrot, peeled and cut into 3-inch-long matchsticks
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper, optional
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
3 cups steamed jasmine rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breast in the freezer until firm enough to thinly slice, about 20 minutes. Using a sharp or serrated knife, thinly slice the chicken 1/8 inch thick. Transfer to a medium bowl and drizzle in 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce. Let sit for 10 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon of the cornstarch and mix well. Set aside in a cool place for 20 minutes.
  • Whisk the remaining 2 teaspoons cornstarch with 2 teaspoons water in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a wok or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil starts to shimmer, add the chicken slices in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, until they just turn opaque, about 45 seconds. Flip and cook, undisturbed, until almost entirely opaque, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Remove to a bowl.
  • Add the ginger and garlic to the wok. Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is slightly golden brown, about 30 seconds. Add the broccoli and toss to coat; cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and carrot; toss to combine. Add the Shaoxing wine and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Add the chicken stock, white pepper if using, chicken and the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
  • Mix the cornstarch mixture in the bowl until well combined then add to the wok. Stir until everything is nicely coated, reduce the heat to medium low and cover with a lid. Cook until the sauce has thickened slightly and the chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Drizzle with the sesame oil. Toss until everything is well combined and transfer to a serving platter. Enjoy warm with steamed rice on the side.
