Simple Stir Fry

WARNING: This is NOT a recipe I found on Pinterest! This is my aunt's stir fry recipe that I've adapted slightly, but it's too good to not share! 

It's become a family favorite in my house and you really can eye it and tailor it your liking! 

Here's what you'll need:



 6 Chicken Breasts (not pictured since they were already boiling when I remembered to take a picture)
1 Bag of Frozen Chopped Onions
1 Bag of Frozen Mixed Pepper Strips
2 Tablespoons of Butter
Frank's Red Hot Sweet Chili Sauce OR Buffalo Wild Wing's Asian Zing Sauce
Honey
Soy Sauce

NOTE: Tonight was the first time I used the Asian Zing sauce in this recipe. Usually I use the Frank's Sweet Chili, but I love the B-Dubs sauce and felt like mixing it up. It was very good! Essentially, the sauces taste the same, only the Asian Zing is more spicy. If you like more spicy, use the Asian Zing. If you like more sweet, use the Sweet Chili. I wouldn't suggest using both of them together. 

Here's what you do:

1) Boil your chicken. I boil mine in a water and chicken broth mix, and it turns out pretty flavorful.

2) Defrost the peppers and onions in a skillet with tall sides, you'll want to drain the melted water out of the pan a few times.

3) Once the chicken is boiled, cut it into long strips. Add the strips with butter to the defrosted peppers and onions. So it will look like this at this point: 

(sorry for the fog, it was steamy)




4) Let the chicken, peppers and onions cook for a few minutes until everything is warmed through. Now it's time to add your sauces. I don't measure any of my sauces, I sort of just throw everything together. 

5) Put the Soy Sauce in first... Cover the entire stir fry. Next is the Asian Zing or Sweet Chili, whichever you're using. Add as much as you desire. Finally, add the honey. I like honey, so I add more than someone normally would. Again, add as much as you desire 

At this point it should look like this:




6) Let everything simmer together until well heated. Serve over rice and enjoy!
