A homeschooling mother of one teenager and a little. In 2001, I resigned from my 13 year position as a case manager to homeschool my oldest who was a preschooler at the time, and later a daughter who came along in 2005. This is by far the hardest job I've ever loved. My husband of nearly 20 years supports us as a fire fighter and EMT.

Spicy Ginger Chicken Stir Fry Recipe

This came out very nicely tonight with a deep spicy flavor. This is my own recipe, so measurements may be approximate.

Make a pot of rice flavored with some Adobo, or some other seasoned salt. I like to use chicken stock in lieu of water. One cup(dry) will do, but two will stretch the meal. 

In a pan stir fry the following together over medium heat:
  • One medium onion(sliced) and a spoon full minced garlic(jar). Caramelize these first in oil and little butter. 
  • About half a bag frozen pepper stir fry(chopped green, yellow, and red peppers with onions)
  • A cup of cooked shredded chicken
  • A good helping of frozen broccoli(chop into smaller pieces while cooking in pan)
  • A splash of apple cider vinegar
  • A good heavy helping of powdered ginger, to taste
  • Garlic salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Sugar(or honey), about a tablespoon. I used a squirt of agave nectar.
  • A dash of Spice Islands' Spicy Pizza and Pasta Topper, Hot and Spicy(on sale at Save-A-Lot, great stuff!!)

When above ingredients are thoroughly cooked, stir in the cooked rice, top off with some good quality soy sauce(the real stuff), and serve.
