Stir Fry

1 Small to medium onion
2-3 cloves of garlic, crushed and chopped
1 lb chicken, cubed or cut in slivers
1 can chicken broth
1 cube chicken bouillon
1 cup water
2-3 Tbs. soy sauce
1-2 heads of broccoli
3-4 carrots
2-3 Tbs. cornstarch
water


Chop onion and garlic. If you have kids who don't like onion, cut it VERY fine. Sautee onion and garlic in olive oil. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink. Add chicken broth, bouillon, water and soy sauce. Add carrot and broccoli. Cook until vegetables are soft but not squishy. Once vegetables are to desired texture, bring mixture to a boil and thicken using cornstarch dissolved in water. Serve over rice.

Variations:
You can use all canned broth or all bouillon.
You can add green peppers and snap peas, just before serving.
You can use beef and beef broth instead of chicken
I don't use a recipe for this so all measurements are approximate
