High-protein chicken and veg stir-fry (30-minute meal prep recipe)

This stir-fry is one I come back to constantly. It's 30 minutes start to finish, scales up easily for the week ahead and hits 55g of protein per serve. If you're trying to eat well without spending your Sunday in the kitchen, this is a good place to start.

Prepped veg and chicken.

Easy high protein chicken and veg stir-fry.

[1 serve]

You’ll need:

  • 200g chicken breast, diced

  • 100g mushrooms, chopped

  • 100g capsicum, diced or strips

  • 100g bok choy, chopped

  • 80g snow peas, halved

  • 5g paprika

  • 10ml tamari (I use Pure Harvest organic)

  • 1/2tsp Olivada blood orange olive oil (or flavoured/unflavoured olive oil of choice)

  • 7.5g organic coconut oil

Method

  • Prep your ingredients – dice chicken and chop all your veggies

  • Season the chicken in paprika and stir through to coat

  • In one pan, heat coconut oil and cook the chicken through

  • In a second pan or wok add capsicum and mushrooms first, let them cook through a little before adding in the bok choy and leave snow peas right until the end for a crisp texture

  • Once everything has cooked through, bring the chicken into the pan/wok with the veggies, add tamari and olive oil (I’ve used a blood orange one for flavour). Stir through and serve up


Meal prep tip: Simply increase the ingredients based on how many servings you want. I made 6 serves by scaling up, then portioned them out equally.
