Ingredients
-
2 teaspoons canola oil or other vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pound boneless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger or 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3 cups broccoli florets
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided
1 tablespoon cornstarch
4 firm-ripe plum tomatoes, quartered lengthwise
Directions
1. Heat oil and salt in a 12-inch nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. When oil is very hot, add chicken breast and stir-fry 3 minutes. Add soy sauce, garlic, and ginger and stir well.
2. Add broccoli, then slowly add 1/2 cup chicken broth. Cover and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until broccoli is just tender.
3. Meanwhile, mix cornstarch into remaining 1/2 cup broth until dissolved. Stir tomatoes and cornstarch mixture into skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 2 minutes or until sauce thickens and clears. Serve hot.
You can substitute lean slices of beef or pork loin for the chicken, and red or yellow bell peppers for the tomato, if you like. If you use bell peppers, add them to the skillet at the same time as the broccoli. Serve this dish with brown rice or noodles.
"I added some red pepper flakes and more garlic. Also added snow pea pods, which gave it more crunch. I put it over a small amount of rice noodles. Next time I make it, I'll try it over brown rice (fewer calories)."
