What I can't really call these are recipes.
Yesterday I had some boneless chicken breast, and when I looked in the freezer and saw some Aldi's veggies, I decided I would make something with the two.
I grabbed some things from the pantry and fridge.
I sliced the chicken up, seasoned it with garlic salt and lemongrass powder and sautéed it in toasted sesame oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until no longer pink, about 5 minutes or so.
Meanwhile, I put a bag of Asian Seasoned Vegetable medley in the microwave. Once the veggies were done I added to the chicken. I then plopped in a tablespoon of Sambal Oelek, and drizzled some soy sauce (not too much!). Stir and heat it through, and eat!
It was delicious! Sorry about the messy bowl.
Today I thought I would repeat it, but I didn't have the mixed veggies and I had pork.
So I sliced up the pork, heated up the toasted sesame oil, but this time I squeezed in some garlic, ginger, and lemongrass paste, stirred that a bit until it was fragrant, then added the pork.
While that was cooking I put a bag of Aldi's frozen asparagus in the microwave. When it was done, I drained and sliced the asparagus and added to the pan, and stirred it up a bit. I didn't like the asparagus right out of the microwave, but sautéing it on the stovetop gave it a nice crispy edge that I liked. Sambal Oelek and soy sauce, and another bowl full of goodness.
