Chicken and Walnuts Asian Stir Fry

Steps

  1. Cut chicken into 1 inch pieces
  2. Pre-Heat a Wok or Large Skillet over high heat. (Wok works better)
  3. Add 1 Tablespoon of Vegetable Oil to hot Wok/Skillet
  4. Stir Fry the green and red peppers for 5-7 minutes. Remove to a separate bowl when done.
  5. Add a little Vegetable Oil to Wok/Skillet and Stir Fry green onions for 2 minutes or until crisp and tender.
  6. Remove green onions to a separate bowl (Or to bowl with green and red peppers if there is enough room in the bowl)
  7. Add a little oil to Wok/Skillet and Toast the Walnuts for 1-2 minnutes.
  8. Remove from Wok/Skillet
  9. Place chicken in Wok/Skillet and stir fry for several minutes. (Until chicken is no longer pink on the inside) Note: Water accumulation will occur and should be drained from Wok/Skillet as we do not want to boil or steam the chicken.
  10. Reduce heat to a medium and Stir Soy Sauce Mixture (See below) into the Wok/Skillet and stir to blend together for 1 minute, until the mixture begins to thicken.
  11. Add all cooked vegetables to the Wok/Skillet and stir well.
  12. Cook 1 minute more and serve
  13. Soy Sauce Mixture
  14. In a small bowl add the Soy Sauce, Dry Sherry, Grated Ginger, Salt, Sugar, Crushed Red Peppers, and Corn Starch and mix well.
  15. Set aside.
  16. Serve over rice
  17. This recipe will serve nicely over 1.5 Cups uncooked Long Grain Rice/3 Cups Water or rice of your choice.
NOTE: Stir Soy Sauce Mixture just before adding it to the wok per above.
TIP: Rinse the Long Grain Rice before cooking to reduce the rice clumping/sticking together.
