Cooking has not always been my strong suit growing up. Once I got married and my kids grew up to start eating real food, I had to learn. By no means am I a chef or even good at cooking. I just find quick and easy ways to make dishes to cook for Mr. Man and the kids. Luckily, it doesn't take much to please them and they still love my cooking. Even if it is just Top Ramen noodles, LOL.

What I do is buy a lot of meat (pork, beef, chicken, etc.) and buy a lot of sauces to cook them in. Some meat and mashed potatoes or white rice is good enough for Mr. Man.

I came across a bottle of teriyaki stir fry sauce in the asian aisle of the supermarket and decided to give it a try since Mr. Man is very fond of teriyaki sauce.

So for this recipe here is what I used:
- package of boneless chicken thighs (about 8 pieces, you can use less especially if you're not cooking for more than 2 people)
- bottle of teriyaki stir fry sauce
- package of frozen vegetables (fresh vegetables are good, too)
- cooking oil
- a pan

bottle of sauce and package of veggies


cut up the chicken, add oil to the pan and stir fry until it is no longer pink


add frozen veggies and stir fry until veggies thaw out.


this is what it should look like so far


add stir fry sauce. I used a little more than half the bottle since I had so much chicken in there


stir it up to get the sauce mixed in


serve over a bowl of rice and you are good to go! Take that Yoshinoya, LOL, j/k

This recipe is pretty simple! If you can stir things around in a pan, then you should be good. Another thing I like about this recipe is that it's fairly inexpensive. I would have to say for the chicken stir fry dish, I spent a total of about $12-$15, can feed a family of 4 and there's enough for leftovers (unless you eat it all of course). Prep time: around 5 minutes to cut up the chicken. Cook time: about 15 to 20 minutes
