Oh yes another stir fry night at my house! we LOVE LOVE LOVE oriental food & I have fun coming up with something that I hope is close to the authentic oriental style as this PA Dutch girl can get. I have a few on this blog that I am pleased with & this is another !

1 Lb  Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast cut into 1 inch cubes
3 Medium Onions Sliced
1. 1lb Broccoli, Carrot & Cauliflower Frozen Mixed Vegetables
1. 1lb Frozen Pea Pods
1 TSP Minced Garlic
4 OZ Can Mushroom Pieces Drained
2 TSP Ginger Powder
Couple Dashes Nutmeg Powder
Couple Dashes Cloves Powder
1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
1 TBS Worcestershire Sauce
1 TBS Honey
3 Heaping TBS Cornstarch dissolved in 2 Cups Cold Water
1/4 Cup Slivered Almonds

Stir Fry Chicken in 2 TBS Olive Oil. Fry about 5 minutes. Add onions & fry until onions are clear. Add the Frozen Broccoli Mix, & the garlic, all of the spices and the mushrooms. Cook about 5 minutes. Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and the honey. Stir & cook about 10 minutes. Stir the cornstarch into the water and stir until smooth. Slowly pour this into your stir fry. Cook & stir until mixture is thick & clear in color. Now add the almonds and cook 1 more minute. Serve over hot cooked rice or make Chinese Noodles & serve as Lo Mein .  We love this both ways! Serves 6 easily ! I always serve this with a good quality store bought egg roll & good Duck Sauce for the egg roll ! ENJOY !
