  • Author: Chef Barbara
  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 3 cups broccoli florets
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– ½ cup honey
– ¼ cup soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch
– 2 tablespoons water
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
– Green onions, sliced (for garnish, optional)


Instructions

Creating Honey Garlic Chicken and Broccoli is an enjoyable process if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
2. Heating the Oil: In a large skillet or pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the skillet, cooking until they are browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
4. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir well and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Combine Sauces: In a bowl, mix together honey, soy sauce, cornstarch, and water. Stir until the cornstarch is dissolved.
6. Return Chicken: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet with the sautéed garlic and ginger.
7. Add Sauce: Pour the honey sauce mixture over the chicken. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
8. Add Broccoli: Add the broccoli florets to the skillet, mixing them in with the chicken and sauce.
9. Simmer: Cover the skillet and let it simmer for about 3-5 minutes, allowing the broccoli to steam and become tender while absorbing the chicken’s flavors.
10. Finish: Remove from heat. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired.
