Ben's Chicken and Leek Stir fry

Stir frys are quick and easy to cook. Adding leeks may be unusual, but it does give a nice flavour.

Be aware that dark and light soy sauces may have used wheat in the processing so are not gluten free. I use a brand of Tamari soy sauce made by Sanchi which is labelled "Gluten Free". A friend in Canada also pointed me in the direction of Bragg Liquid Aminos which is an ideal gluten free substitute for Soy Sauce. Thanks Natasha.

Ingredients

to serve 2
  • 2 medium chicken breasts
  • Tamari soy sauce
  • olive oil
  • 1 large onion (peeled and chopped)
  • 1 green, yellow or red pepper (cored, seeded and sliced)
  • 2 leeks (cut into strips)
  • 2 carrots (cut into strips)
  • 4oz mushrooms (sliced)
  • bean sprouts (optional)
  • tinned water chestnuts (optional)
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Long grain rice to serve.

Method

Cut the chicken breasts into strips, lay in a bowl and sprinkle with soy sauce and freshly ground black pepper. (Do not add salt as the soy sauce is already salted.) If you have time leave them to marinade for between 10 minutes to 24 hours.

Heat the oil in a wok or deep frying pan. Seal the chicken for 2-3 minutes. Add the carrots, onions, peppers (Ben used a little of each coloured pepper) and leeks and continue to stir fry for another 4 minutes.

Add the sliced mushrooms, bean sprouts and water chestnuts (if using) and fry for another 2-3 minutes. Tip the remaining marinade into the pan for extra flavour. As soon as the meat is cooked through serve on a bed of boiled rice. The vegetables should retain some crunch.
