Chicken Almond Stir Fry

Quick and simple is my dinner motto during the week.  With busy school and sport schedules, after school dinner plans can get pretty crazy and this chicken almond stir fry is not only quick but it’s delicious too!  Filled with some good for your protein and veggies and topped with a delicious and sweet pineapple style sauce, it’s delicious on it’s own or served over some white rice.  We love to pair this stir fry with some fresh pineapple for a well rounded meal that can be ready and on the table in 30 minutes.

We like the flavor and crunch that the almonds bring but if your family doesn’t like nuts you can leave them out. It will still be a yummy and quick dinner. This chicken almond stir fry is cooked together all in one pan making this a less mess meal.
