I am going to get straight to the point with this recipe! Ready??? Okay, oh my goodness can you say simple, easy and delicious? Last night I had so much going on, you know how it is right? You just get done working, the kids are hungry and you are at a loss with what to cook up!
Yeah, yeah, yeah…same old question, what am I going to cook for dinner tonight? I am tired, don’t feel like spending to much time in the kitchen and I just want to sit down and relax for the rest of the evening! So I headed to the refrigerator and pulled out whatever I had and this is what I came up with.
This meal took 30 minutes to whip up including prep and cook time. The clean up was super easy too…a cutting board, knife, spoon, saucepan, and skillet. Now that is what I am talking about! And WOW, did it ever taste amazing! The only bad thing, it tastes so good that there were no leftovers (which if you know me…I LOVE leftovers!) Guess next time I will make a larger quantity! 😉

Pin RecipeDescription
This organic chicken stir-fry recipe is quick, easy and delicious and will take you less than 30 minutes!
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pound boneless chicken breast cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1 tbsp grass fed butter
- 8 oz sliced mushrooms
- 2 1/2 cups chopped broccoli (about 3 clusters)
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small carrot, peeled into pieces (I just used a potato peeler)
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 3 tbsp organic liquid aminos or coconut aminos (gluten free options) or organic soy sauce
- 1 tsp arrowroot powder
- pepper to taste
- serve with rice
Instructions
- Start cooking the rice according to the directions. (Note, I always add salt to the rice, taste so much better)! If you are cooking 1 cup of rice I usually add 1 tsp of salt.
- While the rice is cooking, preheat a sauté pan on medium heat for about a minute.
- Add 1 tbsp of butter to the pan.
- Brown the chicken and onions together for 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
- Add broccoli, garlic, carrot peels, chicken stock and soy sauce. Season with pepper.
- Cover and allow to simmer for 5 more minutes.
- If the sauce needs thickened, mix together 1tsp of arrowroot powder with 1 tsp water. Stir and add to dish.
- Allow to simmer until the sauce thickens a bit (about 1 minute).
- Remove from heat and server immediately over rice.

February 11, 2013 at 1:39 pmNearly all soy sauce is GMO, thus not organic…..it would be good to mention, the soy needs to be marked organic or GMO free if you want an organic meal……

February 11, 2013 at 2:37 pm@russelllivingston good point. You could also use coconut aminos as well. Thanks for the comment

February 13, 2013 at 9:11 am@hallecottis Thanks for the additional hint….by the way I cooked this the other night and made some of my own changes…..I often find it difficult to follow a single recipe, but it turned out great…..another some problem I don’t always record what changes i make….i did use honey and some brown sugar, and the carrots I cut thicker but long ways and it make them really good. My kids loved it. thanks for having something here to get me started.
