Chicken, squash and eggplant stir fry

Go to page 1 2 »»

One chicken breast to feed a family of four… impossible? Not. We weren’t able to go to the market and the supermarket over the weekend and I was kind of scraping the bottom of the barrel for dinner ideas on Sunday evening. We were out the whole day and I needed to fix something quick. Not exactly easy when there was only a chicken breast left in the freezer and some vegetables that didn’t seem to go together.

Chicken, squash and eggplant stir fry

But… desperation is the mother of invention. I deboned the chicken breast and cut the meat into thin slices–the more chicken pieces I had, the more meat there appeared to be. Then, some vegetables for color and texture and I had a pretty dish that was pleasing to the palate as well. I was actually planning on cooking this dish as a common guisado (sauteed) chicken and vegetable dish. But I was afraid of overcooking the chicken. I cooked it as a stir fry instead.
