Garlic Chicken Stir Fry

Description

Russ and I are huge fans of stir-fry and such… and this was picked for dinner tonight. It sounds super tasty!

Ingredients

2 tablespoons peanut oil

6 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

1 bunch green onions, chopped

1 teaspoon salt

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips

2 onions, thinly sliced

1 cup sliced cabbage

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

2 cups sugar snap peas

1 cup chicken broth

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons white sugar

2 tablespoons cornstarch

Directions

Heat peanut oil in a wok or large skillet. When oil begins to smoke, quickly stir in 2 cloves minced garlic, ginger root, green onions and salt. Stir fry until onion becomes translucent, about 2 minutes. Add chicken and stir until opaque, about 3 minutes. Add remaining 4 cloves minced garlic and stir. Add sweet onions, cabbage, bell pepper, peas and 1/2 cup of the broth/water and cover. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup broth/water, soy sauce, sugar and cornstarch. Add sauce mixture to wok/skillet and stir until chicken and vegetables are coated with the thickened sauce. Serve immediately, over hot rice if desired.

The Macallan 12 Double Cask Single Malt

Description

The Macallan Double Cask 12 Years Old forms part of our Double Cask range which marries the classic Macallan style and the unmistakable sweetness of American oak. This is a fully rounded single malt in perfect balance, with flavors of honey, citrus and ginger. The Macallan casks journey from its origins in the forests of America and Europe, through the cooperages and Bodegas of Spain, and to our distillery in Speyside, Scotland. There the casks meet our new make spirit and are patiently matured until they are harmoniously united to create a distinctive single malt with a sweeter, warmer taste and character.
