Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 lb boneless chicken breasts cut into small pieces
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons oil canola, vegetable, or oil of choice
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced or grated (optional)
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms white, baby bella, or shiitake
For the Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon honey or sugar/sweetener of choice
- ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth or water
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon sriracha or chili paste optional
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Start by washing your broccoli and slicing the mushrooms. This is a crucial step. Having everything prepped saves time when you’re at the stove.
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and set all ingredients in clear view. A small bowl for the sauce is also handy.
Step 2: Make the Sauce
In a bowl, whisk together the honey, chicken broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, and sriracha if you like a kick. This sauce is easy to customize. If you want it sweeter, add more honey. If you want it spicier? Don’t hold back on the chili paste.
Step 4: Add Veggies
Once the chicken is done, add the minced garlic, ginger, and sliced mushrooms. Toss everything together, allowing the mushrooms to soften for about 3 minutes. Broccoli goes in last.
Step 5: Incorporate Broccoli
- Adjust for spice: If you love heat, feel free to kick up the chili paste.
- Keep it fresh: Use fresh veggies for best taste and nutrition.
- Batch it up: This stir fry can be doubled for meal prep or to feed a crowd.
- Don’t overcook the broccoli: Keep it bright and crunchy for better texture.
- Sauté in batches: If you’re making a large amount, consider cooking in batches to prevent steaming.
