Teryaki Chicken Stir Fry

I have been trying to use up all of my leftover veggies in the fridge before I get my next bountiful basket full of delicious and fresh produce!  Stir Fry is one of those great meals that you can make with all kind of different ingredients.  I must say that the mixture of ingredients that I used this evening made a wonderful combination.  I had never cooked with turmeric before and it added an amazing element to the flavor, I would definitely user it again in all kinds of recipes.

Ingredients:
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
3 Chicken Breasts (Chopped)
Seasoning (Alpine Touch, Crushed Red Pepper, Oregano, Thyme, Tarragon, Dash of Cinnamon)
1 Carrot of Peelings (Peel outer skin layer off first and trash)
1 Stalk of Broccoli (Florets only)
2 Leek Leaves (Chopped)
1 Red Pepper (Seeded & Chopped Thinly)
2 Leaves Bok Choy (Chopped)
2 Leaves Fresh Basil (Chopped)
1 Piece Fresh Turmeric (Diced)
2 Cloves Garlic (Diced)
1 Bottle of Teriyaki sauce (11.8 oz)
1 Cup Jasmin Rice

Directions:
Add the oil to a heavy bottom skillet.  Add the chopped chicken and season according to preference.  Cook the chicken thoroughly on med-high heat for about 6-8 minutes.  Turn the heat down to low-med and add the vegetables stir everything together and cook for about 3 or 4 minutes to soften the veggies a little.  Add 3/4 of the bottle of Teriyaki sauce and mix thoroughly, cook on Simmer for a few minutes to let the sauce soak into the chicken and veggies and serve over a bed of freshly steamed Jasmine rice (1 Cup is enough for moderate plate for 2 people, make more as needed).  When serving you can add additional Teriyaki sauce if you are a huge Teriyaki lover like I am, otherwise there is more than enough flavor in the dish already.  Serve & Enjoy.

Pork Stir Fry

This turned out deliciously :)  I had pork that needed to be cooked and a copious amount of veggies that I still don't know what to do with all of them :)  Enjoy!

Ingredients:
3 Pork Loin Chops
3 Tbsp Olive Oil
Seasoning (Mango Lime, Cumin, Crushed Red Pepper)
1 Cup Basmati Rice
2 Celery Stalks (chopped)
1 Banana Squash (peeled & chopped)
2 Carrots (peeled & chopped)
4 Radishes (chopped)
4 Green Onions (Sliced)
2 Cloves Garlic (Finely chopped)
2/3 Cup Soy Sauce
2-3 Tbsp Apple Maple BBQ Sauce

Directions:
Add 2 Tbsp Oil to a Large Skillet, add the Pork and Seasoning.  Brown thoroughly about 10 minutes on med-high heat.  Start cooking the rice at this time, 1 Cup Rice and 1 Cup Water, I used a rice Cooker.  Add the remaining oil and all veggies and garlic to the pork and cook until the veggies are softened about 5-10 minutes on Low-Med heat.  Sprinkle with additional seasoning as used previously.  Add the soy sauce and BBQ.  Simmer until mixed and serve over rice.  Enjoy :)

Pour the oil into the pan and add the chopped chicken.  Season the chicken in the pan and brown on med-high heat until cooked thoroughly.   Cook the rice separately at this time.  Add the bag of frozen veggies and continue cooking until warmed all the way through.  Turn hear to Low and add the Sauces for flavor.  Once mixed and warm you can serve by placing over a bed of rice.  Drizzle extra soy sauce for added flavoring.  Enjoy!
