A few weeks back I was craving stir fry and after a little searching found this recipe for
Spicy Ground Chicken Stir Fry that looked perfect for a weeknight meal. The dinner comes together super quickly and you can use whatever veggies you have on hand, and served over some rice it was exactly what I was craving - I’ll definitely be making this one again!
Spicy Ground Chicken Stir Fry
Ingredients
2 Tblsp olive oil, divided
1 lb ground chicken
1/2 medium onion
6 oz snow peas
1 bell pepper
2 cups broccoli florets {I substituted mushrooms & zucchini instead}
1/2 cup thinly sliced carrots
3/4 cups cashews {if desired}
Rice, for serving
Sauce
1/2 cup chicken broth or water
3 Tblsp hoisin sauce
2 Tblsp sriracha
2 Tblsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar
1 Tblsp brown sugar
1 Tblsp cornstarch
1 tsp ginger
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
1. Prep all ingredients - make sure veggies are cut into similar sizes so they cook at the same rate.
2. Whisk together all sauce ingredients in a bowl.
3. Add 1 Tblsp olive oil and ground chicken to large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until chicken is cooked through, breaking up as you go. Transfer to a plate.
4. Add remaining oil to skillet with onion. Cook about 1 minute.
5. Add more oil if needed, then add remaining veggies and cook until they are the desired crispness.
6. Add cashews if using, along with the cooked chicken. Pour sauce over everything, let it bubble, and stir over mixture until warmed through and everything is coated.
7. Serve over rice
