How to Make Chicken Stir-fry?

So, before we begin let me tell you What is Chicken Stir Fry?

Basically, Stir Fry means "Deep Frying" something on very high heat until it cooks completely. And, since it requires constant stirring, therefore, this recipe is called "Stir Fry".

  • Coat Chicken in Flour & Deep Fry: First of all, you've got to coat your chicken in flour and then deep fry your chicken until golden brown and crispy on the outside.

  • Stir Fry Green Beans: Once the chicken is done, take it out and add Green Beans immediately. Crank up the heat and stir-fry until the green beans are blistered on the edges.

How to Cook Crispy Chicken?

  • Coat Chicken in Cornstarch: Coating Chicken in Cornstarch ensures even browning and crispy golden brown edges.
  • Oil should be Hot: Make Sure the Oil is smoking hot.
  • Work in batches. Do Not Crowd the Pan. The chicken is going to leave out its juices and when you have too many chicken cubes in a pan, they don't brown evenly.
  • Stir Constantly: Once you've added your chicken into the pan, make sure you stir constantly, or else your chicken won't brown evenly.

Easy Stir-fry Recipe

I just love cooking easy Stir fry recipes. They are undoubtedly my favorite.

  • Stir Fry is easy to make. I think you will agree with me 100% when I say that Stir Fries are easier than anything else.
  • Stir Fry has a protein, a veggie, and an excellent sauce. All three combines to create a blast of flavor in our mouths.
  • Stir-Fries like Teriyaki Cauliflower Chicken, Broccoli Tofu Stir fry, Ramen Noodles Stir Fry, Honey Mustard Tofu Stir Fry, Vegan Tofu Teriyaki Stir Fry. are my favorites.

What to Serve with this Stir Fry?

    Next, add the Rice Wine Vinegar, Dark Soy Sauce, Sriracha, Red Pepper Flakes, and Honey. Stir to combine. As the sauce begins to bubble, add the fried Chicken & Green Beans. Toss to combine.
