TURMERIC-BLACK PEPPER CHICKEN WITH ASPARAGUS
In this sweet and spicy stir-fry, black pepper, honey and rice vinegar help accentuate turmeric's delightfully earthy qualities. Thinly sliced asparagus doesn't need much time to cook, but feel free to swap with any other vegetables that cook in just a few minutes, like thinly sliced green beans, frozen peas or baby spinach. Serve this with rice or rice vermicelli noodles, or tuck it into a lettuce cup or pita with yogurt and fresh herbs. You could also trade the chicken for tofu, shrimp or cubed pork shoulder.
