Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1/3 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth or coconut milk or water
  • 2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
  • Pinch red pepper flakes
  • 2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 pound chicken breast cut into thin strips against the grain
  • 2-4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 onion cut into half moons
  • 3-4 scallions thinly sliced
  • 4 cups of broccoli florets

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water, stir until all the lumps are gone.
  • Add soy sauce, chicken broth, ginger, coconut sugar, sesame oil and red pepper flakes, into the slurry mixture and mix until well combined. Set aside.
  • Heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the pink is gone and the chicken in opaque. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add onions, garlic and green onions; cook for a couple minutes, stirring frequently. Add broccoli along with a splash of water, pop on a lid (if you have one) and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the broccoli has turned vibrant green.
  • Remove cover from the pan and add in chicken and sauce. Cook until sauce starts to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Serve over brown rice, cauliflower rice, or zoodles and enjoy!
