Ingredients

  • 6 ounces Grilled & Ready® Oven Roasted Diced Chicken Breast

  • 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

  • 1-1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar

  • 2 teaspoons granulated white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon Asian chili sauce, or to taste

  • 3/4 cup mushrooms, roughly chopped

  • 3/4 cup bell pepper, roughly chopped

  • 1/2 cup celery, chopped

  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped

  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced

  • 1/4 cup water chestnuts, drained and halved

  • 1 tablespoon dry-roasted unsalted peanuts, chopped

Cooking Instructions

  • Begin by making the sauce. In a medium bowl, combine cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and stir to dissolve. Add soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and chili sauce. Mix well.
  • Using a wok (or large skillet), prepare Grilled & Ready® chicken according to skillet directions. Remove from pan, set aside and keep warm.
  • Spray wok with nonstick spray, place on medium-high heat and add mushrooms, bell pepper, celery, onion, garlic and 2 tablespoons of water. Cook and stir until mostly softened, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Add prepared chicken, water chestnuts and peanuts to vegetables and raise heat to high.
  • Stir sauce and add to wok. Add red pepper flakes, cook and stir until chicken is hot and sauce has thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
