Ingredients
  

For the Stir-Fry
  • 1 pound Ground Chicken A lean protein that crisps up beautifully; turkey can be used as a healthier option.
  • 1 medium Bell Pepper Adds sweetness and a pop of color; substitutes include broccoli or snap peas.
  • 3 tablespoons Soy Sauce Infuses a savory umami flavor; opt for low-sodium versions for a lighter dish.
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha Provides a spicy kick; adjust to your heat preference.
  • 2 tablespoons Oil Essential for frying; non-stick sprays make for easier cleanup.
  • 1 medium Onion Enhances flavor and aroma; red, yellow, or green onions can be used.
  • 2 cloves Garlic Brings depth of flavor; minced or powdered garlic can both work well.

Equipment

  • Large non-stick skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Ground Chicken Stir-Fry with Spicy Sauce
  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients. Chop the bell pepper, onion, and mince the garlic. Prepare the spicy sauce by combining soy sauce and sriracha in a small bowl.
  2. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add oil. Once shimmering, add ground chicken, breaking it apart. Cook for 6-8 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Toss in chopped onion and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender but still vibrant.
  4. Pour the prepared spicy sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  5. Remove from heat and serve immediately while hot, optionally pairing with steamed jasmine rice or quinoa.
