Made in one pan with flexible ingredients and fast cook times, these stir-fry recipes deliver big flavor without complicated steps or a sink full of dishes.
Chicken & Bok Choy Stir Fry
This 15-minute stir-fry is one of our favorites. With a super simple sauce, it wins over the pickiest of eaters and is extremely easy to make. While the recipe calls for bok choy, use any veggie you have in your produce drawer.
