Leftover Chicken Stir Fry

 Lately I have been getting lots of questions about meal planning. It can be a daunting task but one thing that I have found that helps is working with what I have and a lot of time that is leftovers. This is a great recipe to re purpose leftover chicken you might have. White meat, dark meat, shredded, or not any chicken works great for this versatile recipe.

(I have also decided that trying to make stir fry look pretty is not a skill that I possess. So look past the picture and take my word for it when I say this dinner was amazing.)
