To stir-fry, first heat a wok or large frying pan over a medium-high heat for a couple of minutes. When the wok starts to smoke (or a droplet of water dripped into the pan fizzles away immediately), add 2tbsp oil and allow it to heat through for a few seconds. Add your chicken strips, together with any spices of your choice, and let the meat sear initially, then keep it moving around the pan until fully cooked through. It will take about five minutes for the meat to cook, so half-way through this time, add evenly-cut strips of slower-cooking veg (e.g. carrots, onions or broccoli) and just a dash of your chosen stir-fry sauce, and continue to stir. When the meat is almost done, add the quicker-cooking vegetables (mushrooms, beansprouts), and then add the rest of your sauce. When everything is cooked through, serve immediately on a bed of rice or noodles.
