Introduction
Very yummy!!! Could substitute unsalted butter to cut more sodium and wouldn't sacrifice flavor. Broccoli is optional, but makes the meal more filling (and even healthier) To make gluten-free, use cornstarch and water/chicken broth for thickening agent instead of butter roux and serve over rice noodles instead of angel hair.
