It’s made in minutes, perfect for dinner or even taking to work for lunch the next day. You can feel good about eating it because it is packed with veggies and herbs, just the way I love it.

The secret to this Cilantro Chicken Stir-Fry is obviously the CILANTRO! I am a HUGE fan of cilantro and throw it into recipes every chance I get. I think it adds just the right zing to this fun dish. To make things even easier, this time I used Gourmet Garden Lightly Dried Herbs in the recipe, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the result. Have you tried this stuff?! YOU GUYS. The beauty of the lightly dried herbs is that they absolutely come to life and rehydrate during cooking; providing a convenient and simple way to freshen up your favorite dinners. You get the same aromas, texture, and flavor of fresh herbs with none of the fuss. (PLUS, they stay fresh in the fridge for up to FOUR WEEKS! Way longer than fresh herbs) They come in tons of varieties like Basil, Chili Pepper, Ginger, Parsley and Chives, but I knew Cilantro would be my go-to. I picked mine up at Kroger (the best!) and I think I have found my new ingredient obsession. There’s a little giveaway at the end of this post so DO NOT MISS IT! You have just got to try Gourmet Garden!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken tenderloins (or breasts cut lengthwise)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 white onion, sliced
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
  • 1 yellow or orange bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Gourmet Garden Lightly Dried Cilantro
  • cooked rice for serving

Instructions

  1. Dry your chicken on both sides with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add in chicken and cook each side until brown, about 2-3 minutes per side or until nearly cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining two tablespoons olive oil to the skillet along with the minced garlic. Stir to combine. Toss in all the veggies and stir while cooking until starting to brown and become tender.
  4. Add in the vinegar, soy sauce, and chicken broth, and stir to combine. Allow to simmer down for about one minute, then toss in the cilantro and stir.
  5. Return chicken to the skillet and nestle in the veggies, allowing to cook for 1-2 minutes more until chicken is fully cooked through and warmed.
  6. Serve over rice and enjoy!

  9. This looks so good! Also, I can't wait to try the ginger! I'm obsessed with ginger but it can be cumbersome when making weeknight dinners, this will completely solve that.

  16. I so can't wait to make this dish, headed to get the ingredients now! I'm a huge fan of cilantro too, but so far I haven't found an herb I didn't like. Kroger markets are my favorite (called Smiths here), I'd be crazy excited to win that gift card and coupons😊!

  21. Lucky me! I happen to have all the ingredients for this in my fridge. Was looking for something to use up my cilantro. Gourmet Garden herbs would sure save from having to throw out slimy herbs. I think I would use the basil the most. My favorite herb! Enter me in contest please.

  25. What a great idea! I am going to get the cilantro blend so I can make this today! I buy herbs and end up throwing most of them out, so this will be sa great solution! And thanks for the yummy recipe!

  28. I am very excited about Gourmet Garden spices. I am trying the new Frus Marketplace that just opened by me instead of my go-to store of Albertsons. It seems Albertsons, while tried and true, doesn't have the newer items that are at the Frys Marketplace. My husband love bed cilantro so I am going to try this recipe on him. Thank you Cookie Rookie😋

  42. My husband has Crohn's disease so I am always in the kitchen preparing healthy meal options. We would definitely benefit from your giveaway. We would love to try the ginger because of it's benefits when it comes to the intestinal tract.

  44. I've recently started adding cilantro to many dishes and love it. Have seen the Gourmet Garden in the store and will try it out! Thank you.

  46. Looking forward to trying this recipe; especially like that you use both red and yellow onions. Always looking for recipes to use up the occasional bunch of cilantro I buy before it gets ucky. The Gourmet Garden lightly dried herbs will solve many dilemmas; don't recall seeing it in any of the stores where I shop. Love all the varieties you mentioned.... I'd be going for the basil; it goes in near everything I make. Will look for Gourmet Gardens next time I shop.... would it be in the produce section or ??? Thanks
