Notes
Invent Your Recipe:This recipe is part of our Chicken Stir Fry recipe series. In this series, we have prepared chicken in stir fry sauce with several different types of vegetables. I encourage you to to explore these vegetable options, as well as, other vegetable options we have not included in these recipes as of yet. We will continue to offer more suggestions for Chicken Stir Fry recipes. With that said, this recipe can be easily changed if you are looking for a pork, beef, or shrimp dish. Simple substitute boneless pork pieces, beef steak pieces, or shrimp for the chicken in this recipe. Then continue on with the recipe as written. You might have to change the cook time for the specific protein (for example, less time for shrimp), but for the most part, the recipe will work for your needs.
