The secret ingredient in this stir fry: sauerkraut! Yes, really, sauerkraut. It adds an interesting dimension to an otherwise typical dish.
4 ounces boneless chicken breast
4 ounces medium shrimp, raw
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
1/3 green bell pepper, sliced
1/3 red bell pepper, sliced
2/3 celery ribs, thinly sliced
1/3 cup carrots, thinly sliced
1 cup Krrrrisp Kraut® or Silver Floss® sauerkraut, well drained
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/3 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoon corn starch
Brown chicken and shrimp in oil in a large skillet over high heat for approximately 5 minutes. Push meat to the side of the skillet then add mushrooms, green pepper, red pepper, celery, carrots, sauerkraut, and crushed garlic. Stir-fry vegetables for approximately 3 minutes.
In a bowl combine chicken broth, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Add to the skillet and cook until clear and thickened. Serve over rice if desired.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
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.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

Sauerkraut in a stir fry sounds kinda odd, but the texture of it is really a lot like bean sprouts. The recipe says to drain the sauerkraut, but unless you really love the tang of it, I recommend also rinsing it. It just overpowered the whole recipe too much in my opinion.
