Chicken Stir Fry

hello wonderful world of internet people whomever you are, wherever you are. I made a chicken stir fry tonight, my first to be honest with you but definatley not my last!!

What you will need:

6 Chicken tenders

Fresh Green beans cut medium sized (you could do canned but then the beans will be soggy)

about 1/2 a regular bag of baby carrot sticks sliced 

1 onion diced (by now you guys know I love my onions I am sure)

1 garlic shallot diced

1/2 box of angel hair (lo mein would have been better or rice but my husband wanted noodles and its all I had in my cupboard)

3 to 4 Tablespoons of soy sauce

1 Tablespoon of brown sugar

1/4 cup of olive oil

What to do:

1. take a large skillet out and pour olive oil in it, let it get to a good simmer
2. Put Chicken tenders in and cook till they are mostly fully cooked
3. Bring water in a pan to a boil and cook angel hair or whatever pasta your using
4. Pour soy sauce in, with onions, carrots, green beans, and garlic
5. allow to simmer on a medium low heat till all veggies look cooked but not soggy
6. add scoop of brown sugar and stir, at this point you should be able to pull the chicken tenders apart to smaller pieces and get it mixed in very well
7. strain your pasta if you haven't already
8. cook for another 3 minutes 
9. put pasta on a plate, serve stir fry over the pasta

*If you feel the soy sauce isn't strong enough let it be, and serve your meal with soy sauce on the table, some people love a strong soy sauce flavor while others only want a hint, its better to have less than more of soy sauce in this recipe 

This meal was so husband approved that there were no leftovers left, and he ate quite a bit of veggies!!!

3 Tablespoons of Butter
Sriracha sauce to your liking or hot sauce of your choice
