Easy Stir-Fried Chicken and Vegetables image

This is a recipe that I made frequently on days that I had off from school and/ or work. I used it because it was quick and easy to prepare, cook, and enjoy. If prepared right, it is also good for people trying to watch their weight. I know it was for me. I came up with it just by finding what i had in my freezer and throwing it all together... The cooking time says 10 minutes, but i think it should take less than that. It should take in between 5 and 10 minutes. And for the vegetables, you can get single bags of frozen vegetables (I used broccoli stir-fry) in a grocery store near you.

Time 15m

Yield 2 1/2 cups, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups frozen vegetables
1 1/2 cups chicken (approximately 1 to 1 1/2 chicken thigh)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
salt (I didn't use salt and it tasted great) (optional)
1 tablespoon barbecue sauce, makes another great dish just add to this dish and fry for 1 to 2 more minutes to ensure the flavor

Steps:

  • Cut, cube, or slice chicken, while still frozen ( which was easier for me).
  • In a large frying pan heat olive oil on high for 1 minute (or until hot)
  • Add vegetables to pan, let fry, stiring occasionally to keep from burning.
  • Add chicken to pan
  • If you choose to add salt add now. If not then don't.
  • Stir all ingredients frequently to keep them from sticking.
  • Stir-Fry until chicken is cooked and vegetables are cooked crisp.
