This weeks episode of Healthy RV Cooking has Christine cooking up Ginger Chicken in her tiny Airstream Interstate Sprinter Van’s kitchen…
This ginger chicken is one of my favorite ways to prepare an easy and healthy stir fry. My version uses both dried ginger and fresh ground ginger giving it a double punch! I love cooking Asian food at home because it makes me feel like I am indulging in take-out. Only, my at home version is healthier, quicker, and budget-friendly! Any time I am craving something tasty and “splurge-worthy” I pull out my Asian ingredients and whip up a stir fry (such as my 5-Spice Chicken Stir Fry).
I do give quite a bit of space in my small tiny pantry to some staples such as rice wine vinegar, Braggs liquid aminos, ground ginger, and sesame oil. Using these as staples you can easily change up the final outcome of the stir fry depending on how you layer these ingredients and what else you add in.In this ginger stir fry I use sugar free apricot preserves and a touch of corn starch to create a thicker, velvety glaze sauce. This is a nice change up from my usual stir frys! The fresh ginger adds a nice pop that you just can’t fully reach with dried alone. So make sure you make a trip to the market if you need to pick up some fresh ginger root. I like to store my ginger root in the freezer to keep it fresh. Just pop it into a Ziploc sandwich bag and squeeze all of the air out before putting it in your freezer. Once it is frozen you can grate it with a micro plane the same way you normally would and you will get a beautiful “snow-like” sprinkle of the grated ginger.
When you are shopping for rice wine vinegar make sure you buy the “unseasoned” version. Rice wine is offered in seasoned, which has added sugars….so check the ingredients and nutrition info if you are unfamiliar with these label terms.
The nutrition info for a single serving exactly as I prepared on my recipe is roughly 198 calories (10.1 C/5.6 F/26.8 P). This will change with specific ingredients used and how many servings you eat in one sitting. For a full complete meal you may want to add some jasmine rice, additional vegetables, or buckwheat soba noodles (as shown in photo). This recipe on it’s own without any addition makes a great mini meal for a mid-day snack as well. Recipe➡
