This stir-fry recipe takes the chicken from our taco recipe and turns it into a stir-fry bowl. The chicken is braised in a rich soy and fresh ginger broth until it is fall apart tender. We then shred the meat and let it soak up all the juices from the braising liquid. Next we stir-fry our vegetables and add our chicken in at the end.
Like the beef and broccoli recipe, this can typically be adjusted to accommodate what you have on hand whether it be a different meat or a different vegetable.
