The Sunday Funday Bloggers are sharing recipes that feature Broccoli or Cauliflower.......
Sneha of Sneha's Recipe is hosting this week. I love both broccoli and cauliflower and couldn't choose which to use so I used both in this scrumptious stir-fry. Let's take a look at what the others have cooked up......
- Buffalo Cauliflower Quinoa Bowls from Amy's Cooking Adventures
- Cauliflower Cheese from Karen's Kitchen Stories
- Cauliflower Curry Pathare Prabhu Style from Sneha's Recipe
- Copycat Cracker Barrel Broccoli Cheese Casserole from Palatable Pastime

- Tandoori Cauliflower Steaks from Mayuri's Jikoni
This recipe calls for cooked broccoli and cauliflower. You can cook it in any manner you like or you can use leftover vegetables. I prefer my vegetables crisp-tender. Cook them to your personal liking since they will not cook anymore in the stir fry but just get warmed up.
The stir fry itself only takes less than 10 minutes, so plan accordingly so that the rice and stir fry finish together. Put your rice in the steamer or on the stove. Then prep and cook your broccoli and cauliflower. While they are cooking you can prep the chicken, onions, and garlic and make the sauce.
