My family’s all time favorite stir fry is the Spicy Chicken and Bacon Stir Fry that my husband made for the first time earlier this year. He’s made it for us at least six times since then and every single person that has tried it LOVES it.
I wanted to try something a little different the other night, without losing the awesome flavor that we already love. This was the best possible use for the broccolini from my CSA Box and I can hardly wait to make it again.
I loved the way the vegetables really held the sauce and had so much flavor in every bite.
Broccolini has smaller florets and longer thinner stalks than broccoli.

1bunch of broccolini8 cups worth of small pieces (stalks sliced thinly and about 1" long), I added 2 cups of thinly sliced cauliflower to 6 cups of the broccolini
1bunch of green onionscut into 1" pieces
3/4cupsoy sauce
1 1/2tablespoonschili pasteI used Sambal Oelek
3tablespoonsbrown sugar
2tablespoonslight flavored olive oil or coconut oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg white and the arrowroot. Toss the chicken pieces and the ginger in the mixture and coat thoroughly and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar and chili paste and set aside.
Heat a very large skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil and saute until the chicken is lightly browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Add the vegetables and toss to combine. Saute, stirring frequently, until they are barely tender and still crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Cover with lid for a minute or so at a time, to help cook the vegetables as needed.
Add the soy sauce mixture and stir to coat everything well. Cook about 2 more minutes, just until the sauce thickens enough to coat the meat and vegetables. Enjoy!

We love stir fries in our family. This looks like another variation I can add into our menu plan. Love the picture with the steam coming up. Looks SO good.

I love how you captured the smoke emanating off the stir fry! It makes it that much more captivating.
Isn't it so great how broccoli manages to soak up all that sauce so well? Loe it!

This looks very tasty Miss Mary. It does have a few ingredients that I don't regularly use, so it would be a great change of pace for us.

We have the same "cheatin' chopsticks" too. We got them for Trevor, I always just use bamboo ones.
