stir fry

I can't remember if I've told you this but I just love a big bowl of food all mixed together.  Ya know like a big plate of rice, beans, and tortillas or a bowl of chinese food.  And this is probably why I have a huge crush on stir fry.  My hubby doesn't really care for vegetables which is just so sad!  So I rarely make stir fry.  But tonight he was out with my toddler.  They called to say they would stop to eat somewhere so I decided us girls at home (me and my 18 month old) were going to have stir fry.  And here's how I made it.
 
 
Chicken:
Cut two chicken breasts into small chunks. 
Heat 2 T of oil and 2 T of butter in a pan.  (I LOVE the taste of butter...I know, fat fatty over here)
Throw in chicken, 3-4 T of parmesan cheese, 2 tsp of garlic powder, 2 tsp of dried onions, and salt and pepper to taste
Cook until nice and brown!
 
Rice:
Combine 2 chicken bouillion cubes, 2 cups of water and 1 cup of uncooked rice
Bring to a boil, turn heat down to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
 
Vegetables:
I love the stir fry mix of frozen veggies.  But you can just add frozen peas or whatever you like.  I cook about two cups according to the package, drain and set aside.
 
When everything is finished, combine the rice and vegetables into the pan with the cooked chicken.  Mix all together, top with parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and SERVE!
