Zucchini Chicken Stir-Fry

Pasta Stir Fry.3

I am a recipe cook, that is, I always use a recipe for anything I cook. I consider myself to be a creative person, but I don’t really like experimenting with my cooking.

However, that changed last week. I had alot of zucchini that needed to be used and wanted to try putting it in a stir-fry.

Here is what I used…

  • 1 pkg of chicken breasts
  • 1 box of bow tie pasta
  • 1 medium zucchini
  • 2 stalks of celery
  • 1/2 each of red, orange and yellow pepper
  • some Italian seasoning and Soy Sauce
  • a couple cloves of garlic
  • 1 box of mushrooms

First I cut up all the veggies

I cut the chicken and marinated it in the dressing and Soy sauce for a little while, cooked the chicken in a little oil, then added the veggies.

While they were cooking I boiled the pasta for about 10 minutes.  After draining the pasta, I added it to the chicken and veggie mixture, added some Soy Sauce and heated it through.

I served it with white rice. It was a real hit, even with the 2 picky eaters that I have in the house. I will be adding it to the monthly meal plan for sure.

  2. I am starting to chuckle each time I see your name in a recipe swap with a zucchini recipe in parenthesis. You really got a ton of squash didn’t you! Lucky thing that you have come up with so many tasty ways to use it.
