Chicken Stir-Fry with Peanut Miso Sauce

Cooking for one can sometimes seem like a daunting task. That’s why meals like stir fries are worth revisiting after your college years – you only use what you eat and you still have leftover ingredients for new dishes throughout the week. Try using a more unique sauce than the traditional Teriyaki style one. Our Peanut Miso sauce combines sweet and savoury ingredients with a hit of fresh ginger and it’s packed with protein. Make cooking for one fun again!
