Chicken Stir-Fry with Asparagus and Cashews

From Food & Wine

Cashews contain oleic acid, the same monounsaturated fat that makes olive oil so heart-healthy. This chicken-cashew stir-fry is a lighter take on a dish that Stephane Vivier orders at Rin's Thai in Sonoma, California. Its Asian flavors come from a bright mix of fish sauce, oyster sauce, and basil -- and just a little oil.

Dry Soup

From Better Homes and Gardens

Although Spanish for dry soup, sopa seca (SOH-pah SEH-kuh) is not soup but rice or pasta. Serve this chicken, tomato, and cilantro seasoned rice recipe, which can be made up to 24 hours before serving, as a side dish or main dish.

Kung Pao Chicken

From Better Homes and Gardens

Kung Pao means "guardian of the throne." Legend has it that this ginger-and-garlic-accented dish was named for a Chinese general--"one of the throne's guardians"--who woke up in the middle of the night and commanded his chef to make him a snack. This was the result.

Four-Vegetable Chicken Stir-Fry

From Midwest Living

Chinese chili oil gives this Asian chicken dish extra pizzazz. A mix of broccoli, snow peas, carrots, and celery keep the calories and fat low.

Sichuan-Style Shrimp

From EatingWell

Chinese cooks typically stir-fry shrimp in their shells for a more flavorful dish. You can do the same, but we recommend first removing the tiny legs. While rice may seem like the logical side, braised greens, such as chard or spinach, are actually just as traditional.

Sweet & Sour Chicken with Brown Rice

From EatingWell

In about the time it takes to order and pick up Chinese takeout, you can make this much healthier version of sweet & sour chicken. Our version loses all the saturated fat that comes from deep-frying, along with the extra sugar and salt. If you prefer, use tofu instead of chicken, and use your favorite vegetables; just be sure to cut them into similar-size pieces so they all cook at about the same rate.

Sichuan-Style Tofu with Mushrooms

From EatingWell

Because of the high moisture content of tofu, it can go from a stir-fry to a braise in seconds. We also recommend salting and drying the tofu in paper towels so oil doesn't splatter during frying.

Phyllo Vegetable Rolls

From Better Homes and Gardens

You can make the cabbage filling up to 2 days ahead for these crispy, party appetizers.

Sichuan-Style Chicken with Peanuts

From EatingWell

The piquant Sichuan Sauce (which doubles easily) works well with almost any stir-fry but particularly enhances dishes with meat, fish and poultry. When stir-frying chicken, always spread the pieces in the wok and let them cook undisturbed for 1 minute before stirring. This allows the chicken to sear and prevents sticking. To smash the ginger, use the side of a cleaver or chef's knife.
