When deciding on my Dinnerly meals for the week I chose Lemongrass Chicken Stir-Fry with Pumpkin and Jasmine Rice. I love lemongrass. I used to grow it and it is amazing in recipes, especially with chicken. I also brew it up with hot water for a lemongrass tea. Yumm!
This stir fry was easy to make and tasted great. I love the fresh ingredients and not having to go to the supermarket with a long list. Everything is delivered to your door on the day and at the time slot you choose. If you click on the link below you can get $30 OFF Dinnerly.
