Go to KFC get a bucket of chicken, stop at grocery get a box of minute rice and a package of stir fry veggies. Throw it in the microwave and presto.

what veg do you like ?
lots of htings you can do

here is a simple one

1 onion diced
1 red or yellow or orange bell pepper diced (green are green as in not ripe the other colors seem to taste the same so whatever is on sale)
1 zucchini (about 8 inches) halve length wise , halve those length wise again then cross cut so you have nice even pieces that are a 1/4 and about 1/4 inch thick
1 chicken breast 1/4 inch strips length wise , then cross cut at about 1/2 inch
3-4 mushrooms cut to abotu 1/4 inch slices
1 head broccoli bite size pieces

a large hot skillet with a little oil of your choice

onion first as it starts too get translucent add the pepper and zuchini
give that a couple minutes stirring regular to make sure nothing sticks
add the chicken and mushrooms, they are small pieces and you need get them cooked not over cooked
a few minutes with the chicken in add the broccoli pieces

a few shakes of worshtishire and a few of soy good shake of garlic powder
cook till the broccoli is your desired softness and all the meat has changed color to white with no pink

I use a lid to help speed the cooking in my 14 inch skillet I also double this all , but some veg makes too much liquid and you cook that off with the lid off.

that is the basics , you can serve it over rice , I don't any more
the sky is the limit on variations an flavor profiles depending on what you can and can't eat , I have a granulated mushroom soup base I use to season mine often , no carbs lots of flavor.
there are lots of sugar/carb containing stir fry sauces for all levels of heat and flavor.

thinly sliced carrot can be good
bock choy
cabbage
turnips
chard
sweet peppers
hot peppers
celery
radish
Dacon radish
many types of mushroom
beans , peas , asparagus
garlic
ginger root

the meat is sliced small so it cooks fast , then it is the order of the vegetables on how much time they need to cook

some people use a little potato or corn starch to thicken the liquid into a gravy

basically anything you like goes

this one was with sausage that gave it a nice heat, onion , orange bell pepper , yellow zucchini , broccoli , asparagus, some green cabbage.

it can very much be a what do I have in the garden or fridge I need to use up I only had about 5 stalks of asparagus that day so I cut them and made them small

you could do all one color they taste the same basically but some people like a nice looking plate also

1 large onion - roughly choped
1 Celery Stalk - diced
1 Bell Pepper - sliced

Caramelize the above in a large frying pan using 1 tbsp of butter and a drop of veg/peanut/canola oil (this raises smoke point of butter)

salt/pepper to taste

Add pre-cooked chicken and 2-3 cloves of garlic crushed/finely diced - cook until garlic is fragrant
Add 1/4 cup chicken stock
Add grated (fresh) ginger to taste
Add 1 tbsp teryaki or soy sauce

1/4 tsp chinese 5 spice
Check seasoning

Add broccoli - frozen is fine, cover and steam until broccoli is cooked or heated through

Serve over rice

fresh chicken . REAL butter . Then taco seasoning or Lawrys season salt. Just before taking out throw some provolone or Colby jack cheese on it.

It is unreal good....

3 ingredients 2 if no cheese.

I cut up raw chicken and cook it in a wok w/ olive oil and garlic, then set it a side. Clean the wok. Ad a coating of olive oil to the wok and then add frozen bag of stir fry vegs. plus what ever fresh I have around then put a lid on it. When its close I add back the cooked chicken .At the end I add some panda express kung pow sauce. Put it on the plate and garnish it with fresh crushed peanuts.

Thanks for the suggestions, I have to watch the sodium and potassium due to my wife's kidney problems.
