Stormy Sky Stir Fry Chicken

Colorful and spicy, this is one of our favorite week night stir fry meals. It also does very well with a pound of thin sliced beef instead of chicken.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 tablespoon peanut oil

1 pound Chicken thinly sliced

1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 green bell pepper seeded & cut into 3/4" pieces

1 small yellow onion peeled and cut into 3/4" pieces

3 Sweet mini peppers sliced on a bias and seeded

1 stalk celery sliced thin

2 green onions sliced in 3/4" pieces

3 -4 cloves garlic sliced

1/2 inch piece of ginger peeled and cut into matchstick sized pieces *see note

1/2 cup Teriyaki sauce I prefer Yoshida's

1 heaping Tbsp hoisin sauce

1 teaspoon sriracha sauce

1/2 cup chicken stock

1 tablespoon corn or potato starch

3 tablespoons cold water

4 -5 leaves of Napa Cabbage cut into 3/4" slices


Directions

Preheat your wok over medium high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. The thing about stir frying is that it happens so fast. You HAVE to have all your ingredients prepped and measured out (aka "mess in place" errr..... mise en place). Add the oils. Once hot, add the chicken and stir fry until done. This should take about 3-5 minutes depending on how hot you got the wok. Remove from the wok and add a Tbsp more of peanut oil if needed. Add the bell pepper and onion. Stir fry for 1-2 minutes. Add the sweet mini peppers, celery, and the firmer white parts of the green onion. Stir fry for 1 minute. Add the ginger and garlic, stir fry for 1 minute. Move the contents to the edges of the wok and add the Yoshida's, hoisin, sriracha and chicken stock. Allow to come to a simmer for 30 seconds. Stir together the cold water and starch to make a slurry. Add enough of this to thicken the sauce. You want a consistency that when you dip a clean spoon into the sauce, it clings lightly to the back of the spoon. Return the chicken to the wok. Add the napa cabbage and green parts of green onion. Toss, reduce heat and cover for 1-2 minutes, just enough to wilt the cabbage. Serve with sweet jasmine rice and top with crispy rice noodles.
