Stir Fry Dinner

This recipe can be varied depending on what meats or vegetables you feel like using.  I often use this to get more veggies into our diet.  Sometimes I add teriyaki sauce or hoisin sauce for a change.  Often I serve this with just veggies, as a side dish.
1 lb meat, sliced thin and 1- 2 inches long.
Marinate in: 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 Tbl rice wine, 1-2 Tbl minced garlic, 1 Tbl minced ginger (I keep ginger root in the freezer, and grate off what I want - skin and all), 1/4 cup chopped onion

Wash and chop vegetables.  I use a bag of frozen stir fry veggies if I don't have fresh available.  For broccoli, I chop it and microwave it until tender-crisp in a little water before adding in with other veggies, since it takes longer to cook.  Here are some other veggies I like to use:
Broccoli
Bok Choy
Sliced mushrooms
Baby corn
sliced green, yellow or red pepper
sliced onion
canned sliced water chestnuts
canned sliced bamboo shoots
snow peas
green beans

Meats: chicken, venison, beef, pork, shrimp

Cut up and mix 2-4 cups of vegetables.
Mix in a small bowl or cup: 2 Tbl corn starch and 2 Tbl water.
Have ready 1 cup of broth - chicken or vegetable or beef, or just water and bouillon cube.  Stir well.

In a hot skillet or wok, add 1-2 Tbl. peanut oil and fry 1 Tbl each minced garlic and ginger.  After a minute or two, add the meat and marinade and cook the meat just until done - leave beef or venison a bit pink.
Remove from heat into serving dish, and add more peanut oil.  Add vegetables and broth.  Cover and cook 5 minutes or so, until vegetables are just cooked.  Add corn starch/water mix, and stir to thicken.  Add meat back in, and 1/4 cup more soy sauce or other chinese sauce - to taste.  We like our stir fry nice and saucy to go over the rice.  Low sodium soy sauce is a good idea, since I'm liberal with it.
So, marinate the meat, cook it on high heat, remove it and cook the veggies, mix it all back together with sauce, heat and serve with rice.

On a side note, you can add unsalted cashews or peanuts if you like, and cook with the veggies.  Instead of rice you can cook rice noodles or even spaghetti to go with dinner.  Spaghetti or linguini work well with steak.  One of the best things about this meal is that it's so flexible you don't need to go to the store - just use whatever you have in the house (assuming you keep frozen, canned or fresh veggies and frozen meat, and garlic, ginger and soy sauce around).  Make lots, as leftovers make great lunch at work.
