Sesame Thai Ginger Chicken Stir Fry

Asian, Chicken, One pot meal

Evening guys! So tonight I was planning on making Montery Chicken https://funfoodiefamily.com/2014/06/09/copy-cat-montery-chicken/, but I realized I didn’t have any cheddar cheese. Then I saw this in the pantry and had a new idea for dinner…006
In the time it takes you to cook the rice, your chicken and veggie stir fry will be done! Perfect timing! This would be great with beef, shrimp, or tofu!

Sesame Thai Ginger Chicken Stir Fry

Ingredients

2 tablespoons peanut oil (sub whatever oil you have)
3 chicken breasts cut in to bite sized pieces
1/2 container of Thai Ginger chicken stock
1 tablespoon ginger paste (Asian markets), or minced ginger
2 tablespoons Hoisin
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1-2 cups stir fry veggies- I used a combo of broccoli, snow peas, carrots, and shallots, but any veggie you have on hand would be great (mushrooms, peppers, baby corn, etc)
1 cup of rice

Directions

Cook rice to package. I used half water and half of the Thai Ginger Chicken Stock.
Combine all the veggies and chicken in a wok with a couple tablespoons of peanut oil. Add a splash of your stock, hoisin, and sesame oil. Cook on medium high heat until chicken is cooked through.

Beet, Carrot, Apple, and Ginger Juice

Dips, Dressings, and Spreads

Good morning! I have always been a bit obsessed with juicing. One time back in college I drank so much carrot juice that my skin started to turn a slight orange color. No joke! But college life and real life are much different, so nowadays I break out the juicer on the weekends and in the summertime. It is really fun to try different combinations. Plus, have you ever bought one of those pre-made juice containers? So expensive. I do occasionally buy those brands like Odwalla or Bare Naked when I see them on sale at the store. They are convenient, but there is nothing like making your own juice or smoothies from scratch. Over time I will share some of my favorite juice and smoothie recipes with you. This one is super yummy! It is refreshingly light and sweet. The ginger adds a nice zing to it. This recipe serves just one. You could always add more to sip on throughout the day.

Any good juice or smoothie recipes that you guys have?
