Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced or grated
- 2 garlic finely minced, cloves
- 1 pound chicken breast cut into 1/2-inch strips, boneless skinless
- salt
- black pepper
- 2 cups broccoli fresh florets
- ¼ cup water
- ½ cup chicken broth low-sodium
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce low-sodium
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1-2 teaspoons orange zest freshly grated
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
- In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the skillet. Saute until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
- In the same skillet, combine the broccoli florets and the water, stirring to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Cover the skillet and cook until the broccoli is crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the pan and stir in the broth, orange juice, soy sauce, sugar and orange zest. Add the dissolved cornstarch mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce boils and thickens slightly. Serve over hot, cooked brown or white rice.
