Nommage is my word for totally good food, a la "nom nom nom."

Today's lunchtime nommage:

Chinese Chicken and Zucchini Stir Fry
For two people!

One medium skillet or a wok
One large boneless chicken breast
One or two zucchini
Two tablespoons (or more if you'd like) of Annie Chun's Chinese Stir Fry sauce
3 cloves of garlic (or however much you like, I want more garlic in my recipes, it's totally good for you!)
A small bit of fresh ginger, or you can get the tubes of ginger to use as well (those are good for more accurate measurements)
A handful of sesame seeds. They're totally awesome and pretty painless form of protein and polyunsaturated fats, apparently! I put mine in at the end so the polyunsaturated fats stay put!

Chop the chicken up into small thin strips. Mix with the stir fry sauce.
Chop the zukes lengthwise to make thin "noodles" for your stir fry.
Spray the pan quickly, heat it to medium-high, add the garlic and ginger to start.
After a couple minutes, throw in the chicken, zukes, and two tablespoons of water.
Cover and let it go for 10 minutes or so, stirring occasionally.
When the chicken seems done, throw in the sesame seeds. Let it cook for a couple more minutes so the zukes soften enough.
Throw a bit of sea salt on top and serve it up!

This was a pretty awesome dish, though next time I may put other veggies in with it (like snow peas!) but this was pretty good as far as using what I had around the house already.

So there you go, Jarrad. Got some lean delicious protein!
