Ingredients

• 1/2 cup chicken • or vegetable stock
• 1/2 cup Tamari (dark soy sauce)
• 1-inch knob ginger, peeled and left whole
• 1 cup orange marmalade
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 3 tablespoons peanut or canola oil
• 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips or boneless pork chops, cut into thin strips
• or medium shrimp, deveined and tail-on
• 3 scallions, thinly sliced on a bias
• 1 cup shelled edamame (about 2 big handfuls), defrosted, if frozen
• 1 small red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
• 1 cup snow or sugar snap peas (about 2 big handfuls)
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 4 cups cooked white or brown rice or 1 pound cooked whole wheat noodles

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium size pot over high heat, combine the stock, Tamari, ginger knob, marmalade and a hearty pinch
of pepper. Bring up to a bubble, then reduce the heat to medium and reduce until thickened, about 20
minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the lemon juice and reserve.

Place a large skillet over medium-high heat with three turns of the pan of oil, about 3 tablespoons. When the
pan is smoking hot, add the meat or shrimp to the pan and cook, tossing frequently, until golden and cooked
through; 5-6 minutes for the shrimp or 7-8 minutes for the meat. Remove the meat from the pan and reserve
on a plate.

Return the pan to the heat, add the scallions and sauté until tender and aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the
remaining veggies to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until crisp tender, 4-5 minutes. Add the reserved meat or shrimp and sauce to the pan and toss to heat through and combine. Serve the stir fry over rice or whole wheat noodles.
