I'm back with another recipe from the Pinch of Nom recipe book, and another stir-fry dish, this time it's a chicken and mushroom stir-fr, which can be found as a Fakeaway in the book. You will notice that some ingredients are missing from the list as Skye isn't a fan so I didn't use them.
Let's get cooking!

Ingredients:
Low-calorie cooking spray
1 onion, sliced
2 chicken breasts (skin and visible fat removed), diced 
1 red pepper, deseeded and sliced
1 green pepper, deseeded and sliced
handful of broccoli florets
1 garlic clove, crushed
1/2 tsp finely chopped root ginger
6 spring onions, trimmed and chopped
handful of baby corn, roughly chopped
200 g button mushrooms, sliced
4 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
2 tbsp rice vinegar (or white wine vinegar with a little sweetener added)
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
250 ml beef stock (1 beef stock cube dissolved in 250 ml boiling water)
Cooked rice or noodles to serve

Spray a wok or large frying pan with low-calorie cooking spray and place over a medium heat. Next add the onion, chicken, peppers, broccoli, garlic and ginger and stir fry for 3 minutes, until the onions and peppers start to soften. I didn't use peppers as Skye doesn't like them and I completely forgot about broccoli.

Next add the spring onions, baby corn and mushrooms and stir fry for a further 3 minutes, until they start to colour slightly.

Now add the soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar and black pepper.

Pour in the stock, stir well and turn the heat up to high. Simmer until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly.

Check that the chicken is cooked through and serve with rice or noodles.

This is definitely a dish that will be come a regular in our house, it's quick and easy to make and tastes so good. I love making dishes like this because it means we can go a little Oriental in the way I serve it, like the picture above, I like to serve the rice separate from the stir-fry as well as our choice of cutlery being chopsticks. I'm thinking in future I will be adding peppers as I think it will add more colour as well as flavour to the dish.

If you're interested in any of Pinch of Nom's recipe's then you can buy the recipe book in all major supermarkets as well as online retailers Waterstones and Amazon.

See you soon!
