Moose Stir-Fry

  • Dab some paper towels with a little vegetable oil (about 1 teaspoon) and rub it all over the inside of your wok to grease.
  • Then add 1.5 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the wok and heat over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, bell pepper, celery, mushrooms and snow peas. Cook, stirring often, for about 3 minutes or until the veggies are just tender-crisp.
  • Give the stir-fry sauce another whisk, then add it, along with the cooked moose meat, to the veggies. Cook, stirring often, for about 2 minutes or until the moose meat has heated through and the sauce has reduced/thickened.
  • Serve the stir-fry as is or over your favourite rice or noodles. Garnish with green onion and sesame seeds, if desired. Enjoy!
