Quick & Easy Honey Chicken and Vegetable Stir Fry

Hey friends! I’ve been getting a lot of request for more dinner for twos, healthier recipes, and quick and easy recipes. I decided to just take care of those request with one simple recipe – My Honey Chicken and Vegetable Stir Fry! This recipe is perfect for those that are trying to get ‘Summer Time Fine”, and it also makes the perfect dinner for two ( or three… maybe four). This dish can easily be made in under 30 minutes, and it requires very little ingredients.

For this stir fry I used boneless skinless chicken thighs. I use thighs instead of chicken breast for several reasons.

• Chicken thighs are cheaper
• Chicken thighs don’t dry out as fast as chicken breast do
• I’m more of a chicken thigh fan…

If you want to use chicken breast you totally can. Just keep in mind that the cooking time will change.

I used a lot of frozen vegetables for this stir fry. It made everything so easy. All I had to do is open up a bag, and put the veggies in my skillet! I used frozen vegetables from two different bags.

The stir fry blend included

• Yellow Carrots
• Broccoli
• Cauliflower
• Green beans
• Snap Peas
• & Chestnuts

The frozen pepper blend included

• Red Bell Peppers
• Green Bell Peppers
• Orange Bell Peppers
• Onions

BOTH bags can be found at the Dollar Tree!

I also added a some chopped carrots that I had on hand, but only because I want to put use to them ( you know I try to put use to everything!) If you want to add more veggies you certainly can!

Once everything is done you can serve it as is, or you can serve it over rice like I did. Definitely give this recipe a try, and tell me what you think!
