RECIPE

Cuban

CHICKEN STIR FRY WITH SNOW PEAS, SPINACH, BLACK BEANS AND RICE NOODLES

8

STIR FRY RECIPES ARE PERFECT FOR A QUICK WEEKNIGHT MEAL. THIS RECIPE MAY NOT SEEM LIKE A QUICK COOK, BUT ONCE YOU HAVE THE SEASONING MADE, THE WHOLE THING COMES TOGETHER REALLY FAST!

CAROLYN COHEN, Founder/ Chef/Recipe Developer of DeliciousDish. DeliciousDish Cooking School specializes in Whole Food Home Cooking, Meal Planning, Recipe Developing and Healthy Eating. #CookAtHome d: 416.200.3522 e: deliciousdish@rogers.com deliciousdish.ca

DIRECTIONS STEP ONE: Slice the chicken on an angle into flat wide pieces. Place it in a bowl with the juice of 2 limes and 3 tbsp of Cuban Stirfry Seasoning, DELICIOUSDISH. Let it marinate while you get the rest of the recipe together.

INGREDIENTS FOR THE MARINADE:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

STEP T WO: In a large fry pan, I like cast iron, heat 2 tbsp of the oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and garlic, cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the snow peas, cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove this mixture to a serving dish.

• 1 tbsp grapeseed oil,

STEP THREE: Add the last bit of oil and the chicken and all its marinade into the pan and the 1 tbsp of Cuban Stirfry Seasoning, DELICIOUSDISH. Separate the chicken pieces and stir fry for about 4-5 minutes or until mostly cooked.

• 3 tbsp grapeseed or avocado oil, divided

STEP FOUR: Add the 3/4 cup water, turn the heat to high and let the water boil and thicken. It will take about 5 minutes. Add the veggies back to the pan, the spinach and the black beans.

Let the spinach wilt while stirring.

STEP FIVE: Once the sauce has thickened, empty the pot on top of the rice noodles.

STEP SIX: Serve with any of the toppings tossed through! ◆

• Juice of 2 limes • 3 tbsp Cuban Stirfry Seasoning, DELICIOUSDISH

FOR THE STIR FRY:

• 1 tbsp Cuban Stirfry Seasoning, DELICIOUSDISH

• 1 cooking onion, sliced in half moons • 3 cloves garlic, smashed and chopped a little • 2 large handfuls of snow peas, trimmed • 3/4 cup water • 2-3 handfuls baby spinach • 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed, optional • 1 package of Rice Noodles, I like King Soba Brand, cooked FOR THE TOPPING:

• 6 green onions, sliced in half moons • 1 mango, peeled and diced • Handful of cilantro leaves, chopped • Juice of 1-2 limes

Serves 4.

• 1 long red chili pepper, minced

TIDYING UP YOUR

Life

By CASEY ELOGIO

Tidying Up with Marie Kondo recently debuted its first season on Netflix and within days, it was the topic of every conversation.

In the series, Marie helps families get their homes back in order by teaching them The KonMari Method™, designed to optimize joy. Within the first 10 minutes of watching, you are instantly inspired to apply this method to your entire home.

THE KONMARI METHOD™ SUPPORTS TIDYING BY CATEGORY AND NOT LOCATION. MARIE’S DECLUTTERING CATEGORIES INCLUDES: 1 2 3 4 5

CLOTHING BOOKS PAPERS KOMONO (MISCELL ANEOUS ITEMS) SENTIMENTAL ITEMS

LIFE TRULY BEGINS AFTER YOU HAVE PUT YOUR HOUSE IN ORDER. - MARIE KONDO

Demonstrated multiple times throughout the show, Marie is very patient and never makes anyone feel bad for keeping something or for getting rid of it. She encourages you to hold each item and feel if it sparks joy. If it does, you keep it and if it doesn’t, you donate it and thank it for what it’s brought to your life, even if it taught you that you don’t like items like those.

The tidying process is about checking your priorities and deciding if those items are something you need in your life or not.

Shortly after the show went viral, Thrift stores and various Goodwill locations noticed a large hike in donations.

Although the process of taking everything out and going through each item one by one may seem stressful and overwhelming, you feel lighter and more relaxed once the process is complete. Being able to see everything in your drawer at one quick glance, makes finding things much easier and saves a lot more space. There’s a very therapeutic feeling about taking something no longer being used that takes up space and getting rid of it.

Your home is your shelter from the world and where you can be your truest self. Marie reminds us that tidying is not the final destination, but a tool used to establish the lifestyle you want to live. ◆
