It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

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.

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.
