Gluten Free Stir Fry

This stir fry recipe is very versatile because you can really change up the ingredients depending on your tastes or what you have on-hand. I'll post the recipe as I made it this time, with some notes in brackets on ways you can change it up.

Ingredients, all prepped!

1 garlic clove, minced

1.5 cups beef broth
1/3 cup gluten free soy sauce
2 Tbs sugar
pepper to taste

bell peppers
carrots
onion
cabbage (I use coleslaw mix)
bok choi

any veggies you want!

Final Additions (optional)
1 small can of sliced water chestnuts
1 small can pineapple tidbits
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tsp sesame seeds

Directions:

  1. Mix the marinade ingredients together and marinate the meat for 30 minutes.
  2. whisk the stir fry sauce ingredients together and set aside.
  3. Cook the meat in a large pot or wok over medium-high for about 2 minutes. Remove meat from the pot and set aside.
  4. Add 1 Tbs oil to the pot and cook the veggies for about 5 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Add the meat back into the pot.
  5. Whisk the stir fry sauce again and then add to the pot along with the water chestnuts and pineapple (if using). Cook until mixture boils and thickens, while stirring constantly, about 2 minutes.
  6. Add in the green onions and sesame seeds. Give it a good stir. Put on a lid, remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes.
  7. Serve over rice.
