To add more flavors to the chicken when sautéed, the onions, garlic and ginger aromatics are heated in a wok or a large skillet on vegetable oil to produce the fragrance that distinctively provide added aroma to the chicken when fried.  As the chicken pieces are stir fried, the cook must observed the changing color of the chicken.  When the color changes from pink to light brown, we can add the sweet onions, peas, Chinese cabbage, and bell peppers plus the chicken broth stir to cook further the dish.   A homemade sauce mixture consisting of sugar, soy sauce, cornstarch and chicken broth can finally be added to the stir fried chicken to complete the dish when it is almost done with the vegetables.  We just wait for the sauce to bubble and thicken, and we are ready serve the dish.  Here is a simple chicken stir fried recipe that you can use for this holiday season.

OUR FAVORITE VEGETARIAN STIR FRY

Vegetarian stir fry

Vegetarian stir fry is a very healthy meal that is typically recommended to medical patients suffering from several illnesses including the heart disease.  We have learned how to prepare this dish in the house since my wife got the heart disease and is now on special diet for her sustenance.  Here is how we prepare it and hope you will enjoy doing this in your kitchens. 

WHAT YOU NEED TO HAVE:

• Half an onion
• A head of broccoli
• 14-16 pieces of asparagus
• 2 cloves of garlic

• Wok oil or any light oil such as olive oil or canola oil would be just fine
• Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
• Rice vinegar or rice wine
• Oregano
• Black pepper
• Ginger
• Sesame seeds (is optional and is for garnishing only)

HOW TO MAKE THE STIR FRY:

• Begin by preparing all the vegetables by chopping them according to the instructions in the ingredients’ list.  This is the time consuming part of the cooking but fun to do. Cut all the veggies into bite sizes for easy cooking and get rid of the trash rinds.
• Please mince your cloves of garlic and cut your tofu into small cubes.
• Please store your tofu in fresh water always!  Tofu is only good for a few days after you open it and if you don't use the rest by tomorrow, you have to change its water.
• Begin frying by heating a wok in medium high heat on your American stove.   When hot add the tofu along with the garlic.  Then add one teaspoon of rice wine and two teaspoons of rice vinegar.
• Then add oregano, black pepper, and ginger to my taste.   Sauté the veggies for two minutes.
• Then add two tablespoons of soy sauce and increase your flame to high and sauté for a minute more.
• Then add the veggies.  Stir and add one teaspoon of rice wine to have a slightly less tangy stir fry.
• Add additional oregano, black pepper and ginger along with sesame seeds and continue to stir for another three minutes.
• The broccoli begins to shrink together and the onions become less crisp while the asparagus softens.  Continue cooking if you really want to infuse the taste here but warning you of a mushy asparagus. The general rule still applies here, taste-test a few of the veggies and decide.
• Serve immediately while hot and enjoy this vegetarian stir fry at home. 
• This is enough to easily serve a few persons around or one really hungry individual.  As a rule, strain the stir fry well before placing in a serving dish or the bottom will sit in liquid and turn to mushy pulp when you eat it.

Note:  On cutting boards, after dealing so many wooden boards, we finally purchased a tempered glass cutting board.  This is easier to clean when you spill something and is less prone to retaining bacteria that causes a bad odor.  Now that you have learned how to make vegetarian stir fry, please continue to stir fry at home and live a healthy life.

HOW WE DO OUR RECIPE FOR A STIR FRY SAUCE

STIR FRY SAUCE

There are always zesty flavored fabulous recipes for stir fry sauces that can turn plain sautéed vegetables and meat into an amazing Asian treat. While stir-fry sauces can vary widely in flavor profiles, anything from mildly sweet to powerfully spicy, the best sauce is one that successfully hints at sweetness, saltiness, spiciness and a little sourness.  This article will try to share a few basic recipes and where you can customized it according to your desired taste or used it to flavor stir fry and other Asian dishes.

The ultimate stir fry sauce for us is something you have on your pantry and use it to flavor a quick meal with filled with your desired profiles.  There are actually a variety of flavoring sauces that you can find in Asian stores everywhere. These would include; the umami flavors of Nuoc Mam, a Vietnamese fish sauce and Chinese oyster sauce.  You can also find the sweeter black sauces of Indonesian Kecap Manis and Chinese hoisin sauce.  For heat you will find Huy Fong's Sriracha chili sauce. Adjust according to your taste, but the perfect ratio for me is two teaspoon each of the fish, oyster sauce, kecap manis and hoisin sauces and one teaspoon of the chili sauce for some heat. I sometimes add one to two teaspoons of rice wine or vinegar.

Mix and add to any stir fry or use as a quick marinade for any type of protein. Double or triple the recipe for larger batches.  This may sound simple, but it works out perfectly.  These are the sauces we always have on hand and they're easy enough to prepare on the spot.  We have been stir frying for years and now we don't measure out the exact portions anymore but as if by instinct, pour those amounts into a bowl, mix, and the stir fry.  Using these special sauces have grown in our method and become our instincts to add a few of a particular sauce to perfectly reach our desired taste.   As a simple warning though, please taste-test your dish before adding more of the ingredients to the dish.

We believe what is best for a recipe for a stir fry sauce is a simple combination of Chinese, Indonesian, Japanese (if I use Mirin), Thai, and Vietnamese flavors in one sauce. Remember that fish and oyster sauces are salty enough and in using broth, choose the low sodium types.  You don’t have to add salt to your dish anymore.  In adding sweetness to your dish, it is the kecap manis and hoisin sauces that are sweet enough which means you also do not have to add extra sugar anymore.  We have been using kecap manis since its thickness means more concentrated soy sauce flavor and its darkness yields a lovely color to marinades.  Lastly, you can finish it off with a little heat with spice, not so much though, you can use the Sriracha sauce.  Carefully add one fourth teaspoon and adjust according to your desire.  Happy stir frying and please continue stir frying at home.

TIPS TO REMEMBER:

Notes: 

• Look for dried wide rice noodles, sometimes called “Pad Thai noodles” in the Asian stores or at supermarkets.  We prefer to use them because they have fiber per serving while there are no fibers in noodles made with white rice.
• Shao Hsing or Shaoxing is a Chinese seasoned wine made from rice. It can be found in most Asian specialty stores and in some larger supermarkets with Asian sections.
• Sherry is a type of fortified wine that is originally produced in southern Spain and is a good substitute.  Refrain from using “cooking sherry” it can be high in sodium.  You can also use dry sherry sold with other fortified wines at your liquor store.
• The black bean-garlic sauce is a salty and savory sauce used in Chinese cooking which is garlic, rice wine and fermented black soybeans.  You can find it in the Asian specialty stores or most supermarkets.  You can refrigerate the bottle and it will last for a year.

Stir Fried Chicken

The cauliflower, the green beans, the peas, or even a thousand other choices of veggies would still turn out fantastic.

• One and one half to two pounds of deboned chicken breasts, please remove the skins

The Sauce:

• One half cup of the drained pineapple juice

Once your chicken is sliced thinly, then it won't take long to cook through them.  Transfer the chicken to a plate and repeat with the remaining chicken cuts.  Once done, reserve the chicken.
• Add another teaspoon of oil to the pan if needed and heat again until hot and rippling. Add all the vegetables and pineapple chunks to the pan and stir often, until the vegetables are bright in color but barely tender.
