I use a non-stick electric frypan to get enough room to brown the meat in one go and also to minimize the use of oil in my healthy meals. It's ideal for one-pan cooking.
This recipe makes 10 serves. In our family, this does 2 evening meals for 4 persons and 2 school lunches. The moist tasty and filling meal of protein and veg is packed with protein and fiber, ideal for dieters and for healthy eating.
Breast meat is preferred for freshly cooked stir fry. The meat is more delicate than thigh portions and must be cooked quickly as it has little imbedded fat. So, take care not to overcook this cut of meat.
The secret with easy chicken recipes is to flatten out large portions such as whole sections of breast or thigh so that it cooks evenly. You do this by butterflying the chicken portion.
This is an ideal healthy dish for when you have no time to cook. It takes all of 15 minutes and you have enough for another meal and to decant into a couple of lunch boxes as well.
