Scaryaki Stir Fry

Dinner last night was a fairly simple but really good stir fry I threw together, using what was on hand. Hmmm, I say that a lot, don't I? I guess it's just my M.O...
While I cooked some brown rice, I marinated a few chicken breasts in soy, Sriracha hot sauce, chili garlic paste and sesame oil while I chopped a red pepper, some scallions, washed some bean sprouts and opened a can of water chestnuts. Heating my wok on my hottest burner, I heated some canola oil and stir-fried the chicken, then removed it to a bowl. You should always add the whatever's going to take the longest time to cook first, so in went the red pepper. A few minutes later I added the scallion, then the water chestnuts and finally the sprouts.
I added the chicken back in and added some chicken broth, reduced it and some more of the marinade ingredients. Some toasted sesame seeds finished it, and it was ready in 10 minutes.
Proper stir fry requires high heat, so prep everything ahead of time, because your dish will come together quickly.
What did you have for dinner last night? Email me pics, if you have them!
