Best Chicken Stir fry recipe

I like to use a frozen vegetable mixture on those days where I am pressed for time.

So for this recipe, I have used one of my favorite frozen “Asian vegetable mixes” which has broccoli, carrots, green beans, water crescents in it. 

However you can use whatever vegetables you like. Fresh or frozen will work, just make sure that if your using frozen to defrost them prior to cooking.
