This ended up being a "throw together dinner" that turned out beautifully. Simple easy ingredients, a quick stir fry served over basmati rice and dinner was done.
Marinade:
3/4 - 1 lb. skinless, boneless chicken breasts cut into 1 inch cubes
1/4 cup Tamari Sauce or gluten free soy sauce
1 small minced garlic clove
1/4 wedge of fresh lemon
Mix the above ingredients into a bowl squeezing in the fresh lemon juice, toss in the chicken refrigerate and marinate 1-2 hrs.
2 Tblsp. Extra Virgin Olive oil
1/4 sliced red pepper, peeled
1 minced garlic clove
1/2 cup sliced onion - sliced into 1 inch slices
1 1/2 Tblsp. fresh minced ginger
1/2 cup frozen edamame beans
1 celery stock sliced on the diagonal
5 crimini mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup chicken stock
sauce: combine in a bowl and set aside until ready to use:
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup Tamari sauce or gluten free soy sauce
3-4 Tbsp. ketchup - base on level of sweetness you prefer
3-4 drops sesame oil
splash of white vinegar (or rice wine vinegar)
1 heaping Tblsp. cornstarch
Mix the marinade in a bowl, adding the chicken and evenly coat then refrigerate 1-2 hrs.
Mix up the sauce ingredients, set aside until ready to use.
Heat up a large frying pan with the EVOO on low medium heat. Add in the vegetables and saute about 5 minutes. Pour in 1/2 cup of chicken stock and continue to saute until the most of the stock has evaporated and the veggies are tender. Then using a slotted spoon, remove the chicken from the marinade (discard used marinade) add in the chicken sauteing another 5-8 minutes until the chicken is cooked. Pour in the sauce and stir until thickened, (if too thick add in a splash of chicken stock) serve over cooked rice.
