This Wok-Style Garlic Chicken & Carrots Recipe was a dish to remember…
Cooking in Ireland this past May proved to be somewhat of a challenge. We were renting a self-catering apartment, so I had a full kitchen at my disposal. However…
Nobody stocked the spice rack in the kitchen, so I had to improvise with very little in the way of spices. But you know what, it worked out great! Particularly with this dish. We had it for dinner and it was quick and easy to put together. Just a little prep with your veggies and you’ll have dinner on the table in about 30 minutes.
I’ll never forget sitting around that table that night. Just a small family, sitting around a simple meal, laughing and making memories that will last a lifetime for me and Mini Chef.
Our time in Ireland with my mom was very special and now that she’s gone, we cherish those memories even more. I still sometimes make this dish just to remember that one night in a small Irish kitchen.
To serve this Clean Eating Wok-Style Garlic Chicken & Carrots recipe, enjoy as is, or serve it over brown rice. It’s a very filling and satisfying dish.

Sounds good! Easy and simple too! Going to try this week!
Mallie – I hope you enjoy it. Let me know how it turns out!
Could I add broth and spaghetti w/o drying out the chicken?
Tara – If the pasta is cooked, it would work well. Not sure how it would turn out if you use dry pasta though…
Would it make any difference if you didn’t have a wok and just used a regular skillet?
Jo – I’m sure it would be fine.

Thank you for your recipes. I am new to clean eating, but I do add in a little dairy now and then. You are the best source of info I have found!
Kat – My pleasure! Welcome! Dairy is clean, so no worries. Just opt for the full fat versions as the low fat / non fat stuff is processed. Enjoy!
