ingredients
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast (cut into strips)
- 1 cup salad dressing (miracle whip or miracle whip light is best)
- 1 package frozen mixed vegetables (I use frozen cauliflower broccoli mix) or 1 package assorted fresh vegetable, cut up (I use frozen cauliflower broccoli mix)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup peanuts or 1 dozen cashews
- 2 cups Minute Rice (follow directions on package)
directions
- Cook cut cup chicken breast strips in salad dressing in large skillet on medium high for 3 minutes or until done.
- Add vegetables.
- Stir in soy sauce and garlic powder.
- Continue cooking 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (add more soy sauce & garlic powder if desired).
- You may add peanuts or cashews now or set on table and sprinkle on top of stir-fry.
- Prepare minute rice according to package directions.
- Serve over rice or noodles. I do not add the peanuts or cashews until the dish is on the table. Each individual may then add (or not add) peanuts or cashews to the recipe. I normally serve in two bowls, one bowl for the rice and the other for the chicken-stir-fry. The peanuts or cashews are served in a small bowl with a spoon.

Very good, and very easy too. I was a bit weary about the miracle whip but it added so much flavor! I used oriental veggies instead. -
Really good, even my picky eaters loved it! -
I was very pleasantly surprised by this stir-fry. The salad dressing sounded odd & the simple ingredients seemed bland, but the reviews were good & I needed something quick without any added sugar. This turned out great & the whole family ate it (kids aged 19 months - 6 years)! Thanks!

Good recipe, but it did need some modifying. First, I'm glad I seasoned my chicken with a Chicken Rub seasoning. It just added so much flavor. 2nd, we are watching our weight so I reduced the salad dressing to a 1/4 cup. I used mayo. I'm not sure it really added much to the flavor, but it was interesting too cook with. 3rd, I used fresh veggies - broccoli, asparagus, petite carrots, onion, 3 cloves of garlic and yellow bell pepper. I seared my chicken for a minute and added the veggies immediately. I knew it would take longer than 5 minutes make to make them tender. I waited for the veggies and chicken to cook before adding the soy sauce. I prefer fresh garlic and opted out of the garlic powder. I skpped the nuts as we have a nut and peanut allergy in our house and subbed the rice for Thai Rice Noodles. The meal was amazing. I don't think I would have enjoyed the recipe as written b/c I can't see where the flavor would have come from.
