Five Minute Stir-Fry

This recipe is one of three meals that are made with some of the same ingredients. Prepare them individually or try cooking them as a “stack” of three. Start with Maple Dijon Chicken. After cooking that, you are on your way to two other meals in the stack, Five Minute Stir-Fry and Stuffed Acorn Squash Bowls.

Instructions

Add chicken, peppers and snow peas to the heated skillet and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, then pour in sauce. Cook for a minute more then serve over rice. Top with peanuts and red pepper flakes.
