Most of you probably make chicken sauté with vegetables at home from time to time. It's a very simple and healthy dish. But how do you make it truly fantastic?

This chicken sauté recipe is very quick and the entire cooking process will take you no more than half an hour. Such a recipe is perfect even during a busy work week as a healthy and quick dinner.

The Versatility of Chicken Sauté

Chicken sauté can include more or less any vegetable.

Whether you choose broccoli, carrots, or zucchini, you certainly won’t go wrong.

How to Make the Best Chicken Sauté with Vegetables?

My fantastic chicken sauté includes bell peppers, corn, peas, and mushrooms. It’s a very similar sauté to the one that makes up this stuffed potato pancake with chicken. This one, however, is enriched with ingredients like ginger.

When it comes to meat, you can choose chicken thighs or chicken breasts. Delicious chicken breasts fit this recipe perfectly. Simply pat the breasts dry with a paper towel.

There’s no need to wash them with water. Then cut them into smaller cubes.

Preparation is Key

It’s important to prepare everything first because you’ll then just be adding ingredients to the pan step by step.

What Side Dish Goes Best with Chicken Sauté?

The most popular version is probably with rice.

However, chicken sauté doesn’t have to be served only with rice. Spaetzle is also a good choice. Less known here, but very tasty. Spaetzle goes well with dishes that are juicy and contain sauce.

Tips for a Fantastic Chicken Sauté with Vegetables

  • Add turmeric to the pot with rice. Turmeric is healthy and will give your rice a beautiful color.
  • You can use frozen or canned peas. However, frozen peas work perfectly here.
  • Don’t be afraid to add more water. It helps create an excellent consistency. If your chicken sauté turns out too watery, mix one teaspoon of cornstarch with a little water and add it to the sauté.
Recipe Preparation Steps
1.

Prepare all vegetables and meat. Clean and dice the bell pepper and mushrooms. Slice the leek, ginger, garlic, and chili pepper.

2.

Pat dry the chicken with kitchen paper and cut it into cubes. Dry meat sears better on the pan.

3.

Rinse the rice well, season with salt and pepper, and place it in a pot. Add three cups of water to two cups of rice. Cover the pot and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.

4.

While the rice is cooking, season the diced chicken with salt, pepper, and ground paprika. Heat olive oil in a pan and add the chicken. Fry on high heat until the chicken is golden brown.

5.

Push the chicken to one side of the pan and add the leek, finely chopped ginger, garlic, and chili pepper to the empty side. Sauté for about two minutes and then mix with the chicken.

6.

Add the mushrooms and bell pepper to the pan. Add mustard, ketchup, and season with ground cumin. Stir everything well. Pour in half a cup of water mixed with a little cornstarch to create a nice sauce.

If it seems too dry, add a bit more water.

7.

Finally, add the corn and peas and mix again. Let it cook for a bit until the bell pepper is soft. Turn off the heat, garnish with chopped spring onion, and serve with a portion of warm rice.
