This chicken cabbage stir fry is quick to make (only 25 minutes!) and totally delicious. Tender chunks of chicken are cooked with cabbage noodles, some broccoli, and red peppers. It's an easy and inexpensive dinner recipe that will make your weeknight evenings a whole lot tastier.
Cut the chicken breasts into 4 strips each and sprinkle with pepper. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear for 5 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink in the middle.
4 medium chicken breasts, 1 tablespoon cooking oil, ½ teaspoon black pepper
While the chicken is cooking, chop the veggies. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and soy sauce. When the chicken is cooked, add it to the bowl and toss to coat.
2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan along with the cabbage, red pepper, and broccoli. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the veggies just barely start to soften. Add the soy and cook, stirring a few times, for another 3 minutes.
1 tablespoon cooking oil, 3 cups cabbage, 1 medium red pepper, 1 small head of broccoli, 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Divide the cabbage stir fry between 4 plates and top with the chicken. Drizzle any sauce left in the bowl over the cabbage.
