Chicken Stir-fry

Leftovers go Lightly



Chicken Stir Fry is one of my favorite recipes for leftovers. For instance, a few days ago I roasted a chicken and that night had it with steamed broccoli and Cauliflower Puree. A delicious meal, but with lot's of leftover chicken. However, I planned for those leftovers. So a couple of days later I made some rice turned the leftovers into a stirfry. My original Mediterranean meal was transformed into an Asian meal in 30 minutes. (Note: this is not a classical Asian stir-fry, it's a quick dish made up from what's on hand suitable for a weeknight meal.)

Pepper Steak

A Stir-fry Staple



When I was a kid my mother made pepper steak on a regular basis. She'd use a round steak and cook it too hot and too fast so it was always tough as could be - but it tasted mighty good. I hadn't thought of it in years until a few days ago. The sirloin steak is much more tender, and because the recipe only calls for 1/2 pound it's pretty cheap. Don't be tempted to add more meat, the steak is only one ingredient.

I hadn't thought of it in years until a few days ago. Sirloin steak is much more tender than round steak, and because the recipe only calls for 1/2 pound for two people it's pretty cheap.
