Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into cubes
  • 1 tbsp + 1 tsp Olive oil, divided
  • 1 Yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup Sliced mushrooms
  • 23 cups Broccoli florets
  • 4 Cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 3/4 cup Chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 tsp Sugar
  • 2 tsp Sesame oil
  • 2 tsp Cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the broccoli, sliced mushrooms, and yellow bell pepper to the heated skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables begin to become tender. Remove the vegetables, cover them, and set aside.
  3. Place one teaspoon of olive oil in the heated skillet, and add the chicken breast pieces. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Mix the cooked vegetables back into the skillet with the chicken.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar, chicken broth, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Mix well.
  6. Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables in the skillet, and stir to coat. Cook for 2-3 minutes until everything is coated well and the sauce has thickened.
  7. Serve over white rice if desired.

Notes

  • Use low-sodium soy sauce if you’re watching your salt intake.
  • Feel free to substitute vegetables based on what you have on hand.
  • To make it spicier, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha to the sauce.
