Okra Stir-Fry image

A fusion of the deep south and asia! I do not remember where I got it from but the taste works well (at least for me). My japanese mom-in-law loves it!

Time 32m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 lb boneless chicken, cut into cubes
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into cubes
1/2 green bell pepper, cut into cubes
soy sauce, as needed
minced ginger, as needed
balsamic vinegar (a splash)
1 lb fresh okra pods
curry powder, to taste

Steps:

  • Marinate the chicken and peppers in the soy sauce, minced ginger, and balsamic vinegar.
  • Cut the heads and tails off the okra and cut into 1/4 inch rounds.
  • Dump them in a bowl and don't season them!
  • Stir-fry the chicken until about 2/3 done, pull chicken out and set aside.
  • Add oil, then the okra.
  • Stir like crazy.
  • Your goal is little green things that look like they are trying to be a nice golden brown.
  • If you cook the okra just right, it is great. Under or over-cook it, it is great.
  • Throw the chicken back in and stir.
  • Add the peppers.
  • Toss in about a teaspoon of curry powder for fun.
  • Serve over rice or with mashed potatoes.
