Best My Favorite Stir Fry Recipes
MY FAVORITE STIR FRY
I don't like bottled sauces, so I made my own for stir fry. The meat marinade for this recipe and the accompanying sauce use the same ingredients for convenience.

Steps:
- Combine all ingredients for the marinade, and prepare chicken in bite sized pieces, either thin strps or chunks. Place chicken and marinade in a ziploc bag and marinate in refrigerator at least one hour.
- Meanwhile, prep all of your vegetables for stir-frying.
- Make the sauce by combining the chicken broth, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and pepper flakes and 5-spice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. While this is heating, combine the sherry and cornstarch until smooth. When sauce mixture boils, add the cornstarch mixture and stir until sauce is thick. Keep sauce warm.
- Heat 1-2 Tbsp oil in wok until nearly smoking hot(I like to add a few red pepper flakes to the oil) and add the peanuts. Fry for 2 minutes, then remove to a small bowl.
- Add all of the vegetables to the very hot wok and stir-fry until the vegetables are tender crisp. Drain the chicken and discard the marinade.
- Remove the vegetables to a bowl. Add oil to the wok if necessary and again get it smoking hot. Add the chicken and stir-fry until juices are clear and cooked off.
- Add peanuts, cooked vegetables, and sauce back in to the wok and stir to coat.
- Serve immediately over hot cooked rice.
MY FAVORITE STIR-FRY SAUCE
This is from a recipe in Easy Vegetarian Meals from Green Giant. I have long since decided I don't care for the stir-fry itself, but the sauce has been a go-to recipe for me for years. You can make a stir-fry of whatever you like and whip up this quick sauce to top it. I often double the recipe for my stir-fries, which tend to be on the larger size. Note: this does have a bit of zip, so be wary if you are feeding it to little ones and moderate the red pepper accordingly.
