An easy and delicious recipe using a vegetable mix and packed full of nutrients!
This recipe is based on Gifu’s famous chicken chan-yaki (a Gifu-style chicken stir-fry). Vegetable mixes make it easy to make and add color and nutrition!
This is an excellent meal that provides good quality protein from the chicken thigh and vitamins, minerals, and fiber from the vegetables.
