Stir-fried Chicken – We Love God!

Ideally, the goal is to see the discipline of child gradually lessen as he or she approaches the teen years (the opposite of what we often see in society) because life lessons have been learned and righteous actions are personally desired. Yet that does not mean parents no longer have a responsibility to discipline their teenager when necessary. In these cases, we have found the best methods to be restitution (a good action toward the one wronged - see Exodus 22) and/or the removal of a privilege (loss of electronics, use of the car, attendance at an event, etc.). Rarely if ever would our teen discipline be 'grounding' (as in unreconciled confinement) or exclusion from family activities or the use of something good as an instrument for 'punishment' (house chores, exercise, writing, etc.).

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the boneless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Wash and  slice
the mushrooms.  If using fresh broccoli, wash and cut it up  into
bite-sized pieces. If using frozen broccoli, heat it or  partially thaw
it first.  Combine chicken broth, soy sauce, sherry and about 1 T
cornstarch.  Stir well and set aside.  Combine beaten egg white, salt,
about 1/2 t oil and about 2 t  cornstarch. Add the chicken cubes to the
mixture and stir until the  chicken is well-coated. In a wok or deep
cast iron pan, heat about 3  T vegetable oil until hot. Add the chicken
pieces in small batches  and stir continuously until golden brown.
After each batch is  finished, remove and drain. Add oil sparingly as
needed.  Stir fry the mushrooms in the wok.  Stir fry the broccoli in
the wok.  Combine the chicken, mushrooms, broccoli, bamboo shoots and
cashew  nuts in the wok. Stir fry to get everything warm again. Add the
bouillon-cornstarch sauce and stir until thickened.  Serve with rice.
Don't forget to start the rice so that it will be  done at the same
time as the chicken.  NOTES    Chinese stir-fried chicken with broccoli
and nuts. Yield: Serves  2-3.    Bamboo shoots are available in cans at
Chinese grocery stores. Fresh  broccoli is preferable to frozen, and it
should be stir-fried for  only a few minutes to keep it crunchy.
Endless variations of this  basic recipe are possible.  Beef, pork, or
other lean meats can be  substituted for the chicken. Tofu cubes or
brown beans can be used to  make this a vegetarian recipe. Chopped
almonds can be used instead of  cashews. Water chestnuts are a
delightful addition. Green or red bell  peppers can be used instead of
broccoli.  : Difficulty:  easy.  : Time:  45 minutes.  : Precision:  no

The modern view of the death of Jesus is that He died for our sins out of sympathy. The New Testament view is that He bore our sin not by sympathy, but by identification. He was made to be sin. Our sins are removed because of the death of Jesus, and the explanation of His death is His obedience to His Father, not His sympathy with us. We are acceptable with God not because we have obeyed, or because we have promised to give up things, but because of the death of Christ, and in no other way. We say that Jesus Christ came to reveal the Fatherhood of God, the lovingkindness of God; the New Testament says He came to bear away the sin of the world.
