Chicken Stir Fry

This is one of our favorite stir fry recipes. Because I am often short on time, I use a bag of frozen stir fry veggies but know it would be even better with fresh! This turns out to be the perfect portion for our family of four.
Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts, diced
1-2 Tbs. oil
1 bag frozen stir fry vegetables
1 Tbs. melted butter
1 cup apple juice or cider
2 Tbs. Dijon mustard
1 Tbs. corn starch
1 Tbs. brown sugar
salt, pepper and paprika to taste
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, season and cook chicken pieces until done.
2. Put chicken in a bowl, cover with foil and set aside. While the chicken is cooking combine butter, apple juice, mustard, corn starch and brown sugar.
3. Stir fry the veggies in the oil until crisp-tender.
4. Add chicken and sauce. Simmer until thickened.

Serve over steamed rice.

This is so good! I was a little skeptical about the apple juice, but it was so tasty. Easy and quick!
