Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large pieces Chicken breast
- 3 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks, thinly sliced (optional for garnish) Green onions
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but still vibrant green. You can add 1-2 tablespoons of water if needed to help steam the broccoli.
In a small bowl, whisk together the gluten-free soy sauce, cornstarch, water, and sesame oil to create the sauce mixture.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the broccoli. Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet and stir well to coat the chicken and broccoli evenly.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed with more soy sauce or a pinch of salt.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions, if desired. Serve hot on its own or with cooked rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
