Citrus Chicken Stir Fry

Directions

1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil.
2. Stir in whole-wheat noodles and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through but is firm to the bite, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
3. Combine chicken stock, orange marmalade, tamari sauce, whole ginger root piece, and ground black pepper in a pot over medium-high heat.
4. Bring sauce to a boil and reduce heat to medium. Simmer until sauce reduces and thickens; about 20 minutes.
5. Remove sauce from heat. Stir in lemon juice and set aside.
6. Heat peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
7. Cook and stir chicken in hot oil until golden, no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes.
8. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside, leaving oil in the pan.
9. Cook and stir the stir-fry vegetables in the same skillet used for the chicken until vegetables are almost tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
10. Remove ginger root piece from sauce and discard.
11. Stir chicken and sauce into vegetables and cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes.
12. Serve over whole-wheat noodles.

"Very good. I used soy sauce instead of tamari, and I minced the ginger (discard it? No way !)...." See more"

"This was amazing thank you! The sauce was the best. I used fresh vegetables and did not have the noodles so served with basmati rice...." See more"

"This recipe is named appropriately. Without telling my wife the kind of stir-fry I had prepared, she commented about the citrus-like flavor. The flavor is rich without being too overwhelming. I enjoye..." See mored the richness of the tamari sauce. I thought I had peanut oil when I started but did not, so I used sesame oil to brown the chicken. I also lightly drizzled some sesame oil on the pasta too, which my wife also enjoyed. All in all, a nice stir-fry recipe when you don't want the same, bland stir-fry."
