Crock Pot: Day 6 ~ "Stir Fry"

"Stir Fry" in the crock pot isn't really stir fry but it was really good. I checked out a few other food blogs to see what people did to make "stir fry" in the crock pot and then used my own recipe. I used this blog's "Stir Fry" recipe as an inspiration. Therefore this is one I am considering a new recipe.

Ingredients:
-1 Red Bell Pepper
-1 Orange Bell Pepper
-1 Yellow Bell Pepper
-1 Onion
-6 Garlic Cloves
-1 8 oz Package of Sliced Mushrooms
-3 cups of Broccoli Florets
-3 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

Cast of characters
Dice the raw chicken and throw into the crock pot. Mince garlic and throw into the crock pot. Dice all the veggies and throw into the crock pot (hold back the broccoli). Turn on low for 6-8 hours.

Look how beautiful the peppers are!

More veggies

The Sauce:
-2 c Water
-1 c Soy Sauce
-1 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
-4 tbs White Vinegar
-2 tbs sriracha sauce
-2 tbs Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic (Link to purchase this spice)
-4-5 drops of sesame oil
-2 tbs Flour

Pour the sauce over the chicken and veggies.

Whisk the sauce

Add the broccoli 30 minutes before ready to serve.

Add the broccoli at the end

Serve the wonderful "stir fry" over rice.

Served over sticky rice

This dish had a wonderful flavor. Usually when I make stir fry, I marinate the chicken for 24 hours. Doing this dish in the crock pot, there was no need for that. The meat was flavorful and tender. The family loved it!
