Friday Recipe : Stir fry

Stir fry sauce: 

1/2 cup soy sauce

2 tbls lemon juice 

1 tbls corn starch 

1 tbls brown sugar 

1 tsp minced garlic 

Pepper

Mix together in a small bowl. 

3/4 lb  stir fry meat ( pork, beef, or chicken.) 

1/2 an onion, sliced thin. 

1 bag of stir fry veggies or equivalent fresh veggies 

Place 1 Tbls olive or vegetable oil in a skillet  and stir fry meat until almost done. About 2-3 minutes.  Remove meat from skillet.    Add veggies and 1/4 cup water.   Cook until veggies are cooked.  About 3 minutes.   Return meat to skillet and add sauce.   Stir.   Cook until the sauce thickens.  About 2 minutes.   Serve with rice.   

Notes:   

Stir fry meat can be cut from the ends of a pork loin, as part of a sirloin roast or steak before you grind it into hamburger, or from a chicken breast.   

Lemon juice is cheapest bought in a bottle.  I have even seen it at the DT.  

My family doesn’t eat onions, I might substitute celery cut on the diagonal.   

Top ramen noodles can be substituted for rice if you are in a hurry. 

Stir fry veggies are about 1.50 at winco.   Frozen vegetables have taken a hike in price lately.   I am looking for a coupon and/ or sale.
