Teriyaki Stir-Fry

Ingredients: 
Chicken                                      
Rice / Noodles
Green Peppers
Green Onions 
Zucchini
Carrots
Green Peas 
Ginger 
Garlic
Teriyaki Sauce 
Sriracha sauce








First off you need to cut up your chicken and all of your veggies into one large pan. Meanwhile dicing some ginger and garlic into a pot along with Teriyaki Sauce and a little bit of salt & pepper. Leave the pot on simmer while your veggie's and chicken cook.

 

Next you want to boil water in a separate pot than the sauce and begin to cook your rice or noodles. In my case I am using Asian style noodles.


Once your veggies are nice and hot, and your chicken is thoroughly cooked you add the simmering Teriyaki Sauce into the pot along with the veggie's and chicken. Throw it on simmer and let it sit for another 5-10 minutes. 


Now that the combination of Chicken, Veggies, Teriyaki Sauce and all of your other spices you may choose to include are all together and steaming it is time to eat. Place your stained noodles into a bowl and grab some of the Stir-Fry right from the pan onto your noodles to keep it all nice and fresh. Lastly for some spice I add some Sriracha sauce. 


This meal is inexpensive, can be made in large quantities, is extremely healthy and of coarse easy to make. Also there are so many different variations of Stir-Fry you could eat it every week and not get bored. Some ideas to try are Shrimp Stir-Fry, Beef Stir-Fry, and just Veggie Stir-Fry. This is the perfect meal to cook for a date, your family, or if you're just relaxing at home by yourself. 

Flacked Tuna Cakes

Ingredients:
Flacked Tuna
Spring Onions

Green Onion
Chili Pepper
Ginger
3 Eggs
Olive Oil
Fresh Coriander
English Muffins
Sriracha

First take the canned tuna and put it all in a strainer, drain the water out but not completely then put in a bowl.

Next remove the skin of the ginger and grate it into the bowl of tuna. After that chop some spring onions and fresh coriander. Next add one or two finely chopped chilies, depending on how spicy you like your food. In my case I used Chili powder. Add salt and pepper, then around 2 tablespoons of fish sauce. Lastly you want to add 2 eggs and start mixing it all together with your hands.


Roll the mixed ingredients into small balls and then pat them down lately so they form a small burger. Do that until all of the mixture is formed into small burgers. Put the tuna sliders onto a hot pan. Let them sit for close to 2 minutes then flip them for another 2 minutes.


Meanwhile toasts an English muffin until it’s warm and soft then place the cooked tuna sliders onto the English muffin. To finish off the meal top it all off with the condiments of your choice. I used tartar sauce and Sriracha hot sauce. This meal is great because it is so simple, inexpensive, tastes amazing, and it’s very healthy. This was one of my favourite things to make when I was very hungry but didn’t feel like cooking too much.
