This week I am collaborating again with my friend Amy from House of Nash Eats to bring you delicious and healthy meals for the New Year!

I love stir fry because it is so easy to make and you can customize it to your taste. I usually get my favorite wok out and wok away! This time I wanted to put all my ingredients on a sheet pan and let the oven do it’s magic – almost hands off cooking, yes!
Customize your Chicken and Vegetables Stir Fry
- Although this recipe calls for chicken breast, you can use chicken thighs. Cut them into bite size pieces. You may need to cook the chicken thighs a few minutes longer.
- Use tofu instead of chicken and replace the chicken broth in the sauce for vegetable broth or water for an all vegetarian meal.
- Pick your favorite vegetables. Use button mushrooms cut in half, thick slices of onion, green bell peppers cut into bite sized pieces, zucchini or yellow squash cut into 1-inch pieces, asparagus cut into thirds or cauliflower florets.
- Want to be a bit adventurous? Add whole shishito peppers as one of your veggies!
- Make it a little spicy – or a lot! Add chili oil, shriracha or crushed red chili pepper to the stir fry sauce for a little kick!
- Love crunchy garnishes? Toasted peanuts or cashews add a bit of texture to this sheet pan meal!
Kathy’s Notes
- Serve this Sheet Pan Chicken and Vegetables Stir Fry with some white rice. Place the rice in a rice cooker and set it to cook right before you place the sheet pan in the oven. By the time the stir fry is done your rice will be ready too! Time to serve dinner!
- You can also serve it with Jasmine Rice with Ginger and Lemongrass. I provide tips and instructions to make perfect fluffy rice every time!
