Teriyaki Stir-fry with Chicken

Stir-fry is an excellent way to get that gives you a good serving of fresh vegetables. It cost Wayne and I about $15 to make (about 4-6 servings), so its an inexpensive meal as well!

Ingredients:
½ green pepper                                       ¼ cup chicken broth
½ red bell pepper                                    ½ cup teriyaki sauce
½ zucchini                                              ½ tsp honey
1 bunch broccoli                                    1/8 cup fresh chopped cilantro
1 onion                                                    green onion
2 cloves garlic                                         2 Tbs corn starch
1 chicken breast (defrosted)                    2 cups rice
1 Tbs peanut oil                                      1/8 cup vinegar
1 tsp sesame oil

Directions:
1. Add 1 Tbs peanut oil and 1 tsp sesame oil to skillet.
2. Heat skillet to just below high.
3. Add rice to pot with 3½ cups water. Cover and let simmer on medium to medium high heat.
4. Cut chicken into bite-size cubes
5. Add 1/8 cup each teryaki sauce and vinegar to chicken. Let sit several minutes.
6. Add chicken with liquids to skillet. Cook until golden brown and thoroughly cooked.
7. Meanwhile, cut up broccoli, peppers, onions, zucchini, and garlic.
8. When chicken is done, remove and place in bowl.
9. Add vegetables in this order: garlic, broccoli, onion, zucchini, peppers.
10. Add vegetables a handful at a time until all are added. Mix each handful into pan and let cook roughly a minute or a little less, allowing vegetables to heat up so the pan stays hot.

11. Mix ¼ cup teryaki, ¼ cup chicken broth, green onion, cilantro and honey to make a sauce. Add this to skillet once vegetables are cooked.
12. Add chicken back to skillet. Mix everything.
13. Add a mixture of cornstarch and ¼ c chicken broth and mix again.
14. Turn off heat. Leave ingredients in skillet.
15. Serve rice and vegetables together.
