Stir Fry
Stir Fry With Chicken and Vegetables
4 chicken breast halves, boneless & skinless
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 large red bell pepper, cut into squares
1 medium red onion, cut in thin wedges
1 large broccoli spear, separated into florets
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 cloves garlic, crushed

1 medium red onion, cut in thin wedges
1 large broccoli spear, separated into florets

Cut chicken into cubes. Place the chicken in a bowl and add 1 teaspoon of the oil, 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch. Toss to coat chicken. In a small bowl, combine broth, red pepper flakes and remaining soy sauce and cornstarch.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until chicken is opaque. Transfer chicken to plate. Add remaining oil, pepper, onion, broccoli, garlic and stir fry until onion starts to wilt. Add water chestnuts and chicken. Add broth mixture and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly until the vegetables are tender-crisp, the chicken is done and the sauce has thickened a bit.
Serve over hot cooked rice.

Dragon Age 2
The first game had an amazing story line and I enjoyed playing it quite a bit. This one should be even better. Bioware has always cranked out titles with amazing single player gameplay like the mass effect series, bioshock, and dragon age. I'm looking forward to it personally. Happy gaming until next time!

Bioshock Infinite
First game update on The Hungry Blog folks! feedback appreciated. This is the gameplay trailer for Bioshock Infinite. I personally have high expectations for this game based on the trailer. Stunning visuals and good looking gameplay. Interesting environment, not done before, interesting gameplay. Overall it should be good. I never actually played Bioshock 2. I played the first one and after seeing this I'll likely be picking up this one as well.
Happy gaming and eating!
