Q&A for How to Make Chicken Stir Fry

You can choose to do either, it doesn't matter. Marinating will give the chicken a bit more flavor on its own, but if you choose to not marinate, the sauce can compensate. Personally, I like to marinate the chicken so there is more flavor.

It depends on the kind of sauce you want make. To make common Chinese stir fry sauce you will have to mix in cornstarch, soy sauce and chicken broth in a small bowl and mix well and ensure there are no lumps.

About 15 minutes or shorter it is a simple dish. The food preparation is the longest amount of time you spend on the stir fry.

You can use flour or mashed potato flakes. Both work perfectly as a replacement.

Depending on the serving sizes, this could essentially make 6 plates of normal quantity. If your family are big eaters, perhaps only 4 portions.

You can make this without chicken by finding a substitute. Consider using tofu or tempeh as alternatives.

Yes, you can freeze individual servings, but try not to leave them in the freezer for too long to avoid freezer burn.

It should take between 5 to 10 minutes for the sauce to thicken. Stir fry sauces often include soy sauce or something similar to an orange chicken sauce.
