Chicken Stir Fry is one of my favorite ways to combine a ton of vegetables together and start munching away! Asian cuisines is also not on Ky’s food list- so I usually eat my Asian foods on ‘fend for yourself’ nights or when he’s working Thursday-Saturday nights. Sometimes I like to shake it up with swapping chicken for beef stew cuts. And since I am low carb, I have tried swapping rice for cauliflower. This post is a step-by-step to making chicken stir fry- plus tips to shake things up!
Proteins for Stir Fry
- Chicken– cut some chicken breasts into strips, or use leftover rotisserie chicken. Chicken stir fry is my favorite.
- Beef– you can buy stir fry strips, but to save on costs, you can also just cut them yourselves when you buy beef stew or boneless ribs portions.
- Pork– cook a pork whole and soak a little in your sauce of choice.
- Egg– add a couple scrambled eggs with the rice (or grain of choice)
- Egg + any of the other meat options above
Optional Grains
- Rice
- Cauliflower “Rice”
- Quinoa
I have a similar recipe- I used cauliflower rice, eggs and frozen peas and carrots to make Cauliflower Rice Stir Fry.
