Ingredients

Main Ingredients

2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
3 cups broccoli florets
2 tablespoons olive oil for cooking
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons of water for thickening the sauce
to taste Salt and pepper
as needed Cooked rice or quinoa, for serving

Method

Preparation

Start by washing and cutting the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Cooking

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary and toss in the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the soy sauce and oyster sauce, stirring well to combine.
Pour in the cornstarch mixture and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the chicken and broccoli.

Serving

Serve the Delicious Chicken Broccoli over hot cooked rice or quinoa for a complete meal.

Notes

For added flavor, consider topping with toasted sesame seeds or chopped green onions. This dish is also great for meal prep and can be stored in airtight containers for quick lunches.
