Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breast
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry them for about 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and just tender.
While the broccoli is cooking, mince the garlic cloves.
Add the minced garlic to the broccoli and stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
In a small bowl, mix together the gluten-free soy sauce, honey, cornstarch, and water to make a sauce.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the broccoli.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli, stirring well to combine.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and everything is evenly coated.
Serve the gluten-free broccoli chicken hot over your favorite gluten-free grain or on its own as a low-carb option.
