This dish is healthy, delicious and so easy to make. Asparagus is one of my favourite vegetables. It’s low in calories and is very low in sodium. It is a good source of vitamin, calcium, magnesium and zinc, and a very good source of dietary fiber. I always keep some Asparagus in my fridge. Whenever I don’t what to cook or want to make a quick meal, I will never go wrong with this Asparagus Stir-fried Chicken. Serve it along with some rice and you have a complete Asparagus Stir-fried Chicken meal in 20 minutes.
Ingredients:
- 5 oz shredded chicken
- 8 oz asparagus
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- A quarter tsp salt
To marinate the chicken:
- 1 tbsp chili bean sauce
- 1 tsb chopped garlic
- 1 tsp cooking wine
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp cornstarch
Directions:
1. Marinate the chicken 10 minutes before cooking.
2. Take off the bottom, harder part of the asparagus and then cut asparagus as slices.
3. In a nonstick medium saucepan or a wok, heat 1 tbsp oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken to cook, until the chicken is ready and the color turns brown - about 5 - 6 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
4. Wash the pan, and then heat 1 tbsp oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced asparagus to cook. Keep stirring for about 2 - 3 minutes, until the asparagus is almost tender. Add salt, and then add the cooked chicken. Mix everything evenly. Transfer to a serving plate, you are done!
