Carotino Chicken Stir Fry

Stir frying is one of the healthiest methods of cooking around as it’s so quick, the natural nutrients in the food don’t have time to disintegrate. One of the benefits of Carotino oil is that it has a high smoke point so there’s less of a fire risk when cooking at high temperatures and unlike some oils which lose their goodness when the heat is turned up, Carotino oil retains almost all its natural vitamins.

Using Carotino oil to fry not only tastes great, but helps boost the vitamin content of food.
