Chicken Stir Fry

This is my own recipe so the measurements are not exact.

Ingredients:

4 Chicken breast cubed

4 Servings Brown Rice (cooked)

5 celery stocks chopped

5 green onions chopped

Orange Bell Pepper chopped

8 oz bag frozen corn

1 can Rotel

1 tbsp. Minced Garlic

Pepper to taste

Worcestershire

Tony's Cajun Seasoning

1 tbsp. canola oil

Due to the fact I do this all in my cast iron skillet I have to take turns with what I cook because its not a huge skillet. (like at Silver Dollar City)

What to do:

1. Add veggies, a couple splashes of worcestershire with oil and sauté until tender. Once veggies are tender add rotel, warm completely then place in large serving bowl.

2. Add chicken and garlic to skillet and cook until chicken is no longer pink. Then add prepared rice.

3. Once you have a light toast over your rice add your veggies and Tony's seasoning to taste.

ENJOY!
