List of Ingredients

Meat - Chicken + Asparagus Stir Fry

1 cup uncooked rice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
2 medium red bell peppers, cut into thin strips
1/2 pound fresh asparagus,* cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup bottled stir-fry sauce
Cook rice according to package directions. Keep hot.

Heat oil in wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Stir-fry chicken 3 to 4
minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Stir in bell peppers and asparagus;
reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook 2 mminutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender,
stirring once or twice. Stir in sauce. Serve immediately with rice. Makes 4 servings.

*For stir-frying, select thin stalks of asparagus and cut them on the diagonal--
they will cook more quickly.
