Easy home made stir fry We've replaced the sauce ingredients with a store-bought coconut amino teriyaki sauce. Instead of broccolini we just use regular broccoli, green pepper, or whatever veggies you like in a stir fry. Either throw them on a cookie sheet with a little olive oil and let them roast in the oven while you make the rest, or steam them in the microwave! Snow peas and mushrooms work too. 😄 Top with some spicy condiments if desired. double the sauce substituted chicken breast tenders for whole breasts. I used about .8 lb and it was plenty. Loved that substitution. Sped up the preparation and eliminated the need to rest and slice the breasts. Just make sure to adjust the time. I did about 2 mins in the pan, flipped and followed with about 3 mins in the oven.
