Five Spice Chicken Stir Fry Recipe

By Angela McGowan

This is a quick and easy recipe for how to make five spice chicken stir fry. I love stir fries. They are so quick and easy to prepare on a busy weeknight. I have several favorite flavors I like to use in stir fries, and five spice powder is one of them. 5 spice powder is a perfect fall flavor. It has Chinese cinnamon, powdered cassia buds, star anise, ginger root, and ground cloves. In this stir fry I used chicken and some of my favorite vegetables. You can really use any vegetables you have on hand. Stir fries are also a great way to clean out your refrigerator at the end of the week. In this stir fry, I used red and green peppers, onions, bok choy, and garlic. Bok choy is a favorite stir fry ingredient for me. It is very flavorful and nutritious. I also included a complimentary rice recipe. Instead of using a simple steamed rice, I always make a rice with some of the same ingredients as the stir fry.

I have also been busy the past few days simplifying this site. I liked the design I had originally done, but was aggravated with how slow the pages were loading. I have taken out much of the graphics that were slowing things down, while trying to keep some of the original design. It should be more compatible with older browsers now also. I am still looking for ways to speed this site up, if you have any suggestions, let me know. There are a few mistakes here and there that I will be trying to correct this week, but I think for the most part I have corrected the big stuff. I haven’t been able to check in many browsers yet, so if this site looks funny, add a comment here and tell me which browser you are using. Thanks for visiting!
