Description
This 30 minute chicken and broccoli recipe is quick, savory, and perfectly balanced with tender chicken and crisp broccoli coated in a light glossy sauce.
Ingredients
2 boneless chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips
3 cups broccoli florets
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons savory sauce alternative (oyster-style)
1 tablespoon honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons oil
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, savory sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger until smooth and slightly glossy.
2. Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat and add the sliced chicken. Cook until lightly golden and no longer pink inside.
3. Add the broccoli florets and stir for a few minutes until bright green and slightly crisp.
4. Pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli, stirring to coat everything evenly.
5. Mix cornstarch with water, add to the pan, and stir until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
6. Remove from heat and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
Slice the chicken thinly for faster cooking and better texture.
Do not overcook the broccoli to keep a slight crisp bite.
Add a small splash of water when reheating if the sauce thickens too much.
Cook on medium-high heat to get light browning without drying the chicken.
