Chicken Stir Fry with Ham Fried Rice


This is an old standby but why not put it on here since I cook it about every 10 days :)

STIR FRY:

4 Chicken Breasts (diced)
1 Green Pepper cut in strips
1/2 Onion cut in strips
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper
2 TBS Vegetable Oil or Olive Oil
1 TBS Sesame Seeds
1/4 to 1/2 cup of your favorite Oriental Sauce or Glaze (I use Iron Chef Orange Sauce Glaze with Ginger, I don't go cheap on the sauce because I mix it with a little water and make it last about 6 times or more)

Saute onion in oil in a hot skillet, add chicken, salt, and pepper and cook until chicken is no longer pink in center.  Add the sauce or glaze and green pepper strips or sugar snap peas.  Reduce heat and let cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, more if you don't like crunchy peppers or peas.  Sprinkle sesame seeds on top.    

HAM FRIED RICE:

3 Tbs Oil
2 Tbs Soy Sauce
1 Tbs Sugar
1 Cup Diced Ham
3 Tbs Green Onion chopped
2 Eggs, beaten
1/2 Cup Frozen Peas
2 Cups Cooked Rice

Heat oil and saute onion and ham in a hot skillet.  Add rice and peas then soy sauce and sugar.  Once all is cooked through add in the beaten eggs, stir until cooked through.  When I make more I usually just eyeball the recipe and add more of everything to go with more rice...
