This colorful stir-fry combines green bell pepper, orange carrots and red onion along with spice-coated chicken for a delicious result.

READER'S COMMENT:
"This dish was very good. We cut down on the chili spice only because my two little ones wont eat spicy. So I used a few pepper flakes and cooked with some unopened dried chili peppers. I also used a little bit less mint and used the...

Definitely will make again

This didn't even need the garlic…and I'm a garlic fanatic…I left out the garlic, added a few more veggies (broccoli, snow peas, bok choy, water chestnuts, mushrooms) and a few dashes of sesame oil. Delicious!!

Simple and tasty

I also decreased the oil by 1 tablespoon. Two was definitely enough. I'm a vegetarian and substituted chicken for Quorn chicken pieces but this could also work well with tofu, seitan, tempeh or any other protein meat substitute. Loved the taste and the heat from the chiles. I also added about half a cup water to the chicken and veggies and let it cook down. Served over basmati rice.

Great dish

So i didin't have fennel or chilli's, and I totally forgot to add the lime juice and mint at the end or add ground cayenne but this dish was yummy anyway! It makes you feel good because it's healthy and doesn't make you feel heavy or too full after eating. I made this with the spiced rice and corn pilaf which is delish! I mixed the two and the flavors soort of fought for dominance but it was still a great dish! I will for sure make this dish again!

Healthy, easy prep

Wok-Seared Chicken & Vegetables

this was very good, I made a few modifications: used ground spices and briefly toasted them, added some cayenne to the spice mix, used 3/4 # chicken, doubled the veggies, decreased the oil (olive) by 1TBS, and halved the mint. Next time I will double the lime juice and increase the garlic too. This is a meal to feel good about, lots of veggies, just a touch of meat, and healthy oils.

healthy, quick

Yummy

This was so easy to fix and my family loved the flavor. The only suggestion/complaint was that I served it with plain rice and they found that to be a bit dry. Suggested experimenting with a sauce using spices (I am contemplating using light sour cream/chicken broth and spices used in recipe.) Also served with spinach/chickpea patties we found at Costco. What a wonderful meal!
