Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

Healthy, flavorful and super quick, what more could you ask for? Two types of mushrooms along with bok choy and bell peppers help make a stir fry that'll make your taste buds and waistline happy.

1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
12 ounces fresh white mushrooms sliced
4 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and sliced
1 large red bell pepper, thinly sliced
4 green onions (scallions), sliced
2 teaspoons sliced garlic
1 1/2 cup cooked chicken, cut in thin strips
4 Chinese cabbage or bok choy leaves
In a small bowl, combine teriyaki sauce, cornstarch, ginger and 1/2 cup water; set aside.
In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until they release their liquid, about 3 minutes.
Add bell pepper, green onions and garlic; cook and stir until mushroom liquid evaporates and garlic begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add chicken. Stir teriyaki mixture and add to the skillet mixture; cook and stir until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
Arrange cabbage leaves on plates; spoon mushroom-chicken mixture on top, dividing evenly.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
