Ingredients
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1/2 c. low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/3 c. reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 3 tbsp. honey
- 2 tbsp. cornstarch
- 1 tbsp. finely grated peeled ginger
- 2 tsp. toasted sesame oil
- 1 tbsp. neutral oil
- 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1/2" pieces
- 2 medium heads of broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets
- Cooked brown or white rice and toasted sesame seeds, for serving
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk garlic, broth, soy sauce, honey, cornstarch, ginger, and sesame oil until cornstarch is dissolved.
- In a large skillet or wok over high heat, heat neutral oil. Cook chicken, undisturbed, until it easily releases from pan, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on all sides and just cooked through, about 5 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
- In same skillet over medium-low heat, toss broccoli and garlic mixture. Cover skillet and let broccoli steam until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Uncover and return chicken and any accumulated juices to skillet. Cook, stirring, until sauce is thickened and chicken and broccoli are well coated, 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Divide rice among plates or bowls. Spoon stir-fry over. Top with sesame seeds.
