Honey Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry

You’re not going to get much of a blog with this, I’m afraid! I’m struggling a good bit health-wise today- we have a rogue nor’easter on the loose down here in NC - so pretty much what you’re getting is just the recipe. I hope a chicken and broccoli stir fry is basic enough you can fill in the gaps?

HONEY CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI STIR FRY

1lb boneless skinless chicken breast

2lbs broccoli florets

Pan spray

Minced garlic, to taste

Minced ginger, to taste - I recommend Spice World, who makes a squeeze bottle of minced ginger to keep in the fridge

Sesame oil, to taste 

Sauce: 1/4C honey, 1/4C soy sauce (Tamari brand is gluten free), a dash of rice vinegar 

Trim your chicken breasts, and cut them into bite sized pieces for stir fry.

Clean your broccoli and trim into florets. Steam, covered, in a microwave safe bowl until just the ‘crisp’ side of tender-crisp. (I did three minutes, stirred, and then another two minutes.)

Get your sauce ready. I mixed all ingredients in a four-cup measure and whisked until well combined. (This might require a few seconds in the microwave to loosen up the honey before it will whisk!)

Get out your wok and coat with pan spray. Add ginger and garlic, and stir fry until fragrant. Add chicken. Stir fry, stirring and keeping a close eye on it, until just barely done.

Add broccoli. Stir broccoli and chicken together. Pour sauce over the wok. Stir until heated through and well mixed.

Finish it off with a tablespoon or two of sesame oil.

Serve over rice.
