Asian: Colourful Coriander Chicken Stir-Fry



Yes, I do eat carrots, this meal proves it.

My boys often ask me, why we buy carrots but hardly ever eat them cooked in our food.

The answer is simple “my mom Loves carrots and tried her level best to make sure that we experienced them at every cooking opportunity possible!”
Needless to say I am cooked-carroted out! 
I do appreciate them in stir-fries, salads and baking.
